Roasted Corn Salsa

Method

Roasted Corn Salsa

  1. 1

    Roast the Corn

    Preheat your grill or oven to high heat. If using the grill, place the corn directly on the grill grates. If using the oven, spread the corn on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the kernels are slightly charred and tender.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salsa

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the roasted corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, finely chopped red onion, and chopped cilantro. Add lime juice and salt, and mix well to combine. Set aside.

Chipotle Aioli

  1. 3

    Make the Aioli

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, minced chipotle peppers, minced garlic, lime juice, and salt until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    To serve, spoon the roasted corn salsa onto a plate. Drizzle with chipotle aioli and sprinkle crumbled cotija cheese and chili powder on top. Enjoy your street corn!
