I will never forget the culinary experiences from my first trip to Mexico when I was a young girl of 19. While visiting a small town called Lagos de Moreno in the state of Jalisco. I spent a day tasting local dishes and one of my favorites was Mexican street corn that I purchased from a local vendor. Served on a stick, it was piping hot and drenched in a sweet chili-lime butter and dusted with cotija cheese. It was so delicious that I ordered another and kept revisiting the local vendor several times during my visit. He gave me his recipe and as soon as I returned back to California, I made some at a friend’s BBQ and everyone loved it. Perfect for tailgating or a backyard BBQ, Mexican Street corn is definitely a crowd pleaser. You can alter the recipe to your liking or create your own spin on this easy dish.
Ingredients
Another side I enjoy with Mexican street corn is a traditional Mexican fruit salad. Made with freshly cut fruit and chili powder, this is perfect for a warm summer day.
