Instructions

- Grill corn in the husks on the grill for about 15 minutes making sure to turn occasionally. The husks will char while perfectly cooking the corn cob inside.
- Remove corn from the grill, then remove the husks. Cut kernels off into a medium bowl.
- Add lime juice, chili powder, cotija, cilantro, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper to the corn. Mix until combined, and add any more seasonings needed.
- Serve warm and top with fresh cilantro and limes for garnish.
