Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups corn kernels fresh or frozen, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup cotija cheese crumbled
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lime juiced

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the corn kernels to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until charred, about 8-10 minutes.

Notes

For a creamier texture, you can blend half of the corn mixture before mixing with the remaining ingredients. Adjust the spice level to your taste by varying the amount of cayenne pepper. Serve with tortilla chips or warm crusty bread for a delicious appetizer.
