Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corn

    If using corn on the cob, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for about 5-7 minutes until tender. If using kernels, skip this step.

  2. 2

    Make the Chipotle Aioli

    In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped chipotle peppers, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Street Corn

    Once the corn is cooked, let it cool slightly. If using corn on the cob, cut the kernels off the cob and place them in a serving bowl. If using kernels, place them directly in the bowl.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Drizzle the chipotle aioli over the corn and sprinkle with queso fresco, chopped cilantro, and chili powder to taste. Serve immediately.
