I don't know if I'm losing my ability to handle spicy foods but using the freshest spices I could find in the amounts listed made for excruciatingly hot corn on the cob! (I used 1 tbsp of ground smoked chipotle and 1 tsp of plain old paprika.) Also, it took a long time to char the corn on my bbq, but I think it really added something to the flavour of the corn. All in all, I really enjoyed this and will make (a milder version) again.
What a great recipe! Didn't want to fire up the grill just for the corn so I used an indoor electric grill (similar to a Foreman) and it took a little longer, but the corn caramelized perfectly. The only alteration to the recipe was that I used plain greek yogurt instead of mayo. Delicious!
Great recipe! I don't change any of the ingredients but rather the cooking instructions. I have some picky eaters on my hands that do not like eating corn on the cob. So I cut the corn off and use a grill pan and just add the ingredients to it then. Comes out great and makes a great side to bring to events.
This is so delicious. Must use ANCHO chili powder much milder than chili powder. This is flavorful but not spicy. I try to make my corn like this as much as possible. Yummy yummy.
An snazing blend of of flavors. For the one who said this recipe is hot make sure you use ancho and not chipolte pepper. Ive nade with both (awesome either way) but we like spicy. I made this with a black bean salad with fish tacos and received raves all around. Tip: on a rainy day I coated the corn with a little olive oil spritz and "charred" it in a skillet then proceeded as written and was really good as well.
I don't have a bbq so I used boiled corn. I also didn't have the special cheese. This recipe was still delicious. So happy I stumbled across this. Will definitely make again.
I followed the recipe exactly except I used up what I had left of feta and Parmesan cheese (instead of buying cojita ). I made this for dinner when my father came to visit he said "I grew up in the Midwest and have eaten a lot of corn - and this is the best corn I've ever had!"
This was awesome. I used chili powder and a bit of red pepper flakes instead of the ancho chili pepper powder. Also substituted feta cheese and Parmesan cheese for the cojita
I made this and cannot believe how delicious it turned out. I didn t measure everything. Just took mayonnaise and added like juice and paprika and a spicy seasoning I like from a local store. I grilled on a skillet after boiling. Slathered with melted butter. Then the mayonnaise sauce. Sprinkle with cheese and top with spicy seasoning. DELICIOUS! Not sure I ll ever eat corn the same old way again!!
I bought the Ancho and the smoked paprika cojita. I ate one piece of corn without squeezing lime on it. NO flavor! The corn was charred nicely on the grill too. Putting lime on the second one is the only thing that had flavor.
