This fast to prepare side dish takes on the flavors of elote, a popular Mexican favorite!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 packages frozen corn , 16 ounce
  • 0.25 cups crumbled cotija cheese
  • 0.25 cups minced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat a 14-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Spread frozen corn evenly across the skillet; do not stir. Cook corn for approximately 8 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and coriander in a large bowl. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Check the corn; it should be slightly charred. If not, allow to continue cooking for 4 more minutes (stirring is fine at this point.)

  4. 4

    Once corn is sufficiently browned/charred, transfer to the bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Add cotija cheese, red onion, and cilantro and mix until well combined. Serve immediately.
