Ingredients
- 5 ears corn on the cob
- 3 cups water for boiling
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup cotija cheese crumbled
- 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 lime wedge
Queso Blanco
- 1 pound Velveeta queso blanco cubed
- ½ cup whole milk
- 4 ounces diced green chiles
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoons ground cayenne powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Nachos
- tortilla chips
- cotija cheese
- Mexican crema
- chili powder
Instructions
- Remove the husks and silk from the corn cobs. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil, using enough water that the corn will be submerged. Add the corn using tongs; be careful not to splash! Place the lid on the pot and bring the water back to a boil; you will hear it bubbling. Allow the corn to boil in the water for about 5 minutes, then remove from the heat and allow the corn to remain covered in the water for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the corn from the water and allow to cool for several minutes prior to handling. Stand the corn up and holding it with one hand, use a sharp knife in the other hand to slice the corn kernels off the cob.
- Add the corn to a medium-size mixing bowl. Add the mayonnaise, crumbled cotija, chopped cilantro, and chili powder. Stir to combine. Squeeze the juice from the lime slice over the top. Stir and set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the cubed Velveeta, milk, green chiles, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne, and onion powder. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and easily stirred. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
- Layer the chips, queso, and street corn mixture. Top with crumbled cotija, crema, chopped cilantro, and chili powder. Serve and enjoy!
