How to Make Mexican Style Roasted Corn
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place unshucked ears of corn directly on the grill grates and roast for 30-35 minutes, turning occasionally, until kernels are tender and slightly charred.
- Carefully remove the corn from the grill and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, shuck the corn and cut the kernels off the cob into a large bowl.
- While the corn is still warm, add 2 tablespoons of your chosen mild chile powder (ancho, New Mexico, or guajillo), 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter (melted), 1 teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl of corn kernels.
- Gently toss everything together until the corn is evenly coated. Add salt to taste.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this irresistible Mexican street corn! Garnish with extra lime wedges and cilantro if desired.
