INGREDIENTS
2+ husks of corn
1 cup mayonnaise, yogurt, sour cream or any combination of the three
1/2 tablespoon chile powder, to taste
1/2-1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1-3 tablespoons lime juice
1-3 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste
1 dash of TapatiĆ³, or more as desired
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the grill on medium-high for four minutes.
Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream or yogurt until well combined, if using more than one.
Mix in the lemon and lime juices, followed by the chopped garlic and the spices.
Mix in the TapatiĆ³.
Salt to taste. Adjust spices to taste.
Shuck the corn and lather each piece up with the sauce, if adding at the beginning.
Cook on the grill for 5-10 minutes, turning every 1-2 minutes to create a pattern of browning and charring. Add additional sauce if desired.
Take corn off the grill. If the corn was not lathered in sauce before cooking, put it on now.
Original concept and recipe by Mark Bittman.
- Two unshusked corn cobs.
- Shucking the corn.
- Applying the secret sauce to the corn before it goes on the grill.
- Putting the corn, with the secret sauce on, onto the grill.
- Cutting up the limes to be placed over everything.
- Turn the corn for random charring.
- More charring!
- Halfway through, add lots of veggies for the rest of your meal.
- Voila! With a pork chop, peppers and zucchini.
