Report
This street corn grilled cheese is the sandwich of the summer! Charred corn with melty cheddar on toasted bread with cilantro lime butter, chili lime seasoning and a sprinkle of cotija cheese. It's fantastic.

Instructions
- To grill the corn, heat the grill over high heat. Place the ears directly on the grill and cook until they are just charred, turning often. This will take about 8 to 10 minutes. You can use leftover corn or fresh corn too! Once the ears are cool, slice the corn off the cob.
- Stir together the softened butter, cilantro, lime zest and a big pinch of salt. Mix until combined.
- Spread the outsides of the bread with the cilantro lime butter. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place 2 slices of the bread butter-side down in the skillet, top with the cheese, the corn and the green onions. Top with the remaining slices of bread, butter-side up.
- Cook over low to medium-low heat, doing so slowly until the cheese melts. Once the bottom is golden and toasty, flip and cook until the other side is golden too.
- Remove immediately and top with cotija cheese, a sprinkle of chili lime seasoning and fresh cilantro. Serve and enjoy!
