1
Prepare the Corn
Start by removing the husk and silk from the fresh corn on the cob. Rinse it under cold water to clean.
2
Boil or Grill the Corn
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Carefully place the corn in the boiling water and cook for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Alternatively, you can grill the corn on medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until charred and cooked through.
3
Prepare the Toppings
While the corn is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. In a separate bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, lime juice, cotija cheese, chili powder, and chopped fresh cilantro.

4
Coat the Corn
Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the water or grill and let it cool slightly. Brush the melted butter all over the corn, making sure it's evenly coated.
5
Add the Toppings
Sprinkle the prepared topping mixture (salt, pepper, lime juice, cotija cheese, chili powder, and cilantro) over the buttered corn, ensuring it's well-covered.
6
Serve
Serve the corn immediately while it's warm. Enjoy your delicious Side Street Corn!
