Grilled Corn w/ Queso Fresco, Chili Powder & Lime

Yield: 6 servings

Prep Time: 25 min + soaking time

Cook Time: 8 min

Ingredients:

6 ears of corn with husks
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup (about 6 ounces) finely crumbled queso fresco
chili powder
lime wedges

Directions:

1. Pull back husks on corn, remove silk, and fold husks back over corn. Soak corn in large pot of cold water for 30 minutes.

2. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Drain corn. Grill corn until kernels are just tender, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes. Pull back husks. Spread corn with mayonnaise; sprinkle with cheese, chili powder, salt and pepper. Arrange corn on platter. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

*Queso fresco can be found in the specialty cheese section of most markets (and in Latin markets). Feta may be substituted.
