Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corn

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Husk the corn and remove all silk. Brush the ears of corn with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Corn

    Place the corn on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and has grill marks.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Queso

    While the corn is grilling, cut the Queso Oaxaca into small cubes or shred it.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Once the corn is done, remove it from the grill and sprinkle the Queso Oaxaca over the hot corn, allowing it to melt slightly.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Topping

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and chop the cilantro. Mix them together in a bowl with a squeeze of lime juice.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Top the grilled corn with the cherry tomato and cilantro mixture. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
