1
Prepare the Corn
Begin by shucking the corn, removing the husks and silk from each ear. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk.
2
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F or 200°C).

3
Grilling the Corn
Brush each ear of corn generously with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Place the corn on the preheated grill. Grill for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until charred and cooked through.
4
Prepare the Topping
While the corn is grilling, in a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, and half of the Cotija cheese. Stir until well combined.

5
Assemble the Dish
Once the corn is grilled, remove it from the grill and let it cool slightly. Using a brush or spoon, apply the mayonnaise mixture generously over each ear of corn.
6
Garnish
Sprinkle the remaining Cotija cheese over the top of the corn, followed by chopped cilantro for garnish.
