Grilled Corn on the Cob with Elote Seasoning

Sides
United States
Ingredients
- 4 ears of fresh corn on the cob
- 2-3 tablespoons mayonnaise (or Mexican crema, or sour cream thinned with a little milk)
- 2-3 tablespoons Elote Seasoning
Optional garnishes:
- Fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges (for squeezing)
Directions
Prepare the Corn:
Carefully peel back the husks from each ear of corn, leaving them attached at the base. Remove all the silk threads. You can either leave the husks pulled back (they act as a handle while eating) or remove them completely if you prefer.
Preheat the Grill:
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F / 200-230°C).
Grill the Corn:
Place the prepared corn directly on the hot grill grates. Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes, until the kernels are tender and slightly charred in spots. You want good color and some darker roasted bits for flavor.
Season the Corn:
Once the corn is done grilling, carefully remove it from the grill. While still hot, use a brush or the back of a spoon to generously spread mayonnaise (or crema/thinned sour cream) all over each ear of corn. This acts as the "glue" for your seasoning and adds creaminess. Pour your Elote Seasoning onto a small plate or shallow bowl. Roll each mayonnaise-coated ear of corn in the Elote Seasoning, turning to coat evenly on all sides. You can also sprinkle it on directly.
Serve immediately. For an extra authentic touch, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and a lime wedge for squeezing a burst of fresh citrus over the corn.
