Description
The Corn Dip recipe starts by grilling fresh ears of sweet corn to develop a slightly smoky flavor. Kernels are sliced from the cobs and mixed with Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, fresh lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to form a creamy base. Chopped scallions and diced jalapeño add a fresh crunch and a mild heat to the mixture.
After chilling, the dip is garnished with reserved corn kernels, scallions, jalapeño, crumbled cotija cheese, and fresh cilantro. It is served with tortilla chips as a flavorful and textured dip balancing creamy, tangy, and mildly spicy notes.
