Ingredients
4
ears
white or yellow corn
1/4
cup
light mayonaisse
1/2
whole
lime
1
tsp
cumin
1/2
tsp
smoked paprika
1
cup
cojita cheese
1/4
cup
cilantro
Instructions
In a container mix your mayo with the lime squeezed. Add cumin and smoked paprika
Get your grill heated up. Chop the cilantro while waiting.
Crumble your cojita cheese
Husk the corn. I like to leave a few husks on to keep some of the moisture in while grilling.
Grill the corn for about 5 minutes on each side
When you're done grilling let it rest for a bit so that you can handle the corn.
When the corn is cool enough to touch, spread a thin layer of your mayo mix onto the corn.
top the corn with cojita and cilantro. I find it's easier to mix the cilantro and cojita together then roll the corn in the mixture.
Sprinkle a little more smoked paprika, chili powder or even tajin and enjoy!
