Instrucciones

1. 1

   Preheat your Grill to ^[medium-high heat] (about ![400–450°F]). While the grill heats, mix together the Mayonnaise, Mexican Crema, grated Garlic, Lime Juice, and Salt in a Mixing Bowl until smooth. Set aside.

2. 2

   Lightly brush each ear of Corn with Vegetable Oil on all sides. This helps prevent sticking and promotes even charring.

3. 3

   Place the Corn directly on the hot Grill grates. Cook, turning with Tongs every 3–4 minutes, until the Corn is charred in spots and cooked through — about 10–12 minutes total. You want a good mix of golden kernels and dark char marks.

4. 4

   Remove the Corn from the Grill and let it rest for 1 minute. Using a Pastry Brush or Wooden Spoon, generously coat each ear all over with the creamy sauce. Don't be shy — the more the better.

5. 5

   Immediately roll or sprinkle each sauced ear generously with crumbled Cotija Cheese so it sticks to the sauce.

6. 6

   Dust each ear with Chili Powder and Smoked Paprika. Add a pinch of Cayenne Pepper if you'd like more heat. Scatter chopped Cilantro over the top if using.

7. 7

   Serve immediately with Lime wedges on the side for squeezing. Eat right away while hot!
