Ingredients:
- 4 ears of fresh corn, husks removed
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup crumbled cotija cheese (or Parmesan as a substitute)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- 1 tablespoon Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika or chili powder
- 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
-
Grill the Corn: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the corn directly on the grill grates and cook for about 10–12 minutes, turning every few minutes. You want the corn to be slightly charred on all sides, which adds to the flavor.
-
Prepare the Sauce: While the corn is grilling, mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, and Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce in a small bowl. Be cautious with the amount of hot sauce, as it’s extremely potent—you can always start with a little and add more if you want to increase the heat. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
-
Coat the Corn: Once the corn is grilled to perfection, remove it from the heat and brush each ear generously with the spicy mayonnaise mixture, making sure to coat it evenly.
-
Add the Toppings: Sprinkle the corn with crumbled cotija cheese and smoked paprika or chili powder for an extra layer of flavor. The cheese will melt slightly, blending beautifully with the creamy, spicy sauce. For a burst of freshness, squeeze lime juice over the top and garnish with chopped cilantro if you like.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Serve your spicy Mexican street corn hot, with extra lime wedges on the side. Be prepared for a flavor explosion—each bite will be a perfect mix of smoky, creamy, tangy, and fiery heat from the Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce.
