Mexican Street Corn

Mexican Street Corn

adapted from Burro.com 

A couple of weeks ago we went to Bar Taco in King of Prussia, PA. My son has the Mexican Street Corn and loved it so of course I needed to figure out how to make it at home, hopefully with fewer calories.

Makes 4 servings                                                       1 WW Blue point / serving

2 ears of corn, husked and cut in half

Cooking spray

1 Tbsp. shredded Asiago cheese

1 Tbsp. shredded Cotija cheese

1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1 tsp. reduced fat mayonnaise

Cayenne pepper (optional)

  1. Heat a grill pan over high heat.
  2. Spray the corn with cooking spray.
  3. When the pan is smoking add the corn and cook turning every 2 minutes for even charring, about 8-10 minutes total.
  4. Meanwhile combine the cheeses and pepper in a small plate.
  5. Remove the corn a piece at a time, brush lightly with mayonnaise, roll the corn in the cheese mixture. 
  6. Repeat with each piece of corn.
  7. Sprinkle with cayenne for color, if using before serving.


Enjoy!
