Everyday after soccer practice, I would wait for the familiar ringing of bells from the elote vendor. A man would travel around the park selling ears of corn slathered with mayonnaise, cheese, chile powder, and lime juice. After an intense hour workout me and my teammates craved those elotes. Now, I am not a fan of mayonnaise but it works really well in this dish, by far my favorite way to prepare grilled corn. This updated version places grilled corn into a wholly different flavor profile. I think you are really going to love this recipe.
8 ears corn, shucked
1/4 cup melted butter
1 tablespoon cilantro
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons chile powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
3/4 cup grated cotija cheese
