Ingredients

  • 4 cups corn
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/3 cup cotija cheese
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and diced
  • 2 green onions diced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  • If using frozen corn, make sure it is completely thawed and well-drained. If using fresh corn, you'll need 4-6 ears to equal 4 cups, depending on the size of the ears. Use a large knife to carefully cut off corn kernels.
  • In a large bowl, mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth, making sure to break up any clumps.
  • Add the corn, cotija, jalapeño, green onion, and cilantro. Mix well, coating everything evenly.
  • Serve immediately, or cover and chill until ready to eat.
