Grilled Corn With Ancho-Lime Mayo and Cilantro
This take on Mexican street corn pairs a spicy mayo with grilled corn.

Ingredients
For the Spicy Mayo
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbs. lime juice
- 1 tsp. ancho chili powder
For the Corn
- 6 ears corn, shucked
- 2 tbs. butter, cut into 6 pats
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
Directions
STEP 1
Make the spicy mayo: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the mayonnaise, lime juice, and chili powder. Spoon into an airtight container and keep chilled until ready to use.
STEP 2
Spread a pat of butter on each ear of corn and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then wrap them individually in aluminum foil.
STEP 3
Grill the corn for about 15 minutes, rotating several times.
STEP 4
Unwrap an ear and check for doneness: Corn is ready when the kernels have a little give to them; you may have to taste test the ear to be sure. It’s OK if you get a few charred spots.
STEP 5
Slather the corn with spicy mayo and sprinkle with cilantro. Add an extra dash of chili powder if desired. Serve.
