INGREDIENTS:

Lay your husked corn on the grill and close the lid, but turn the ears frequently so that they develop lots of caramelized grill marks.

1

When the corn is cool enough to handle, carefully cut the kernels from the cobs with a sharp knife.

2

Add cilantro, green onions, lime juice, kosher salt, and chipotle chile pepper powder.

3

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and water until smooth. Drizzle over the corn mixture.

4

Garnish the top of the salad by sprinkling it with the reserved cotija cheese, and (if desired) with a little extra chopped cilantro and sliced green onions.
