Ingredients

• 6 ears of corn, shucked and fibers removed

• 2 tbsp mayonaise

• 3 tbsp sour cream

• 1/2 cup grated or shredded parmesan cheese, or you can use a Mexican cheese called Cotija

• 1 tsp chili powder

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/8 tsp black pepper

• 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

• 1 lime, cut into 6 wedges

Instructions

1. Heat grill over medium heat and spray rack with non-stick cooking spray.

2. Grill corn, turning frequently (so they don't burn), until the corn is slightly browned and heated through. (about 8-10 minutes)

3. Meanwhile combine the mayo and sour cream in a small bowl and whisk until smooth.

4. In another small bowl combine the chili powder, salt and pepper.

5. Slather the hot grilled corn with mayo/sour cream mixture (I use a pastry brush to brush it on), then sprinkle with the chili powder mixture. Coat in the parmesan cheese, and sprinkle with the chopped cilantro.

6. Serve with a lime wedge

7. Enjoy!
