Southern Street Corn Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Bacon

   In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let it drain on paper towels. Chop into small pieces.

2. 2

   Make the Chipotle Crema

   In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chipotle powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth.

3. 3

   Grill the Corn

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the corn on the grill, turning occasionally, until charred and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from the grill and let cool slightly.

4. 4

   Assemble the Dish

   Once the corn is cool enough to handle, remove the kernels from the cob if desired or serve directly on the cob. Drizzle the chipotle crema over the corn, sprinkle with chopped bacon, and top with cotija cheese and sliced Fresno peppers.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve immediately while warm, with additional lime wedges on the side if desired.
