How to make Grilled Street Corn Dip
First brush olive oil on 6 to 8 ears corn on the cob, a red pepper, and a jalapeno pepper.
Then season them well with kosher salt and pepper.
Preheat your grill to medium high heat and place the veggies right on the grill grates.
Grill them for 10 to 12 minutes, turning a few times.
Then let the veggies cool a bit.
And cut the kernels off the corn cobs.
You can use a sharp knife, or a corn scraper comes in handy for this job.
Next remove the seeds and stems from the peppers.
Dice them up and add them to the bowl with the corn.
Finally add some mayo, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, Tajin seasoning, garlic powder, cotija cheese, and fresh cilantro.
Mix it together and add more kosher salt, pepper, and/or Tajin if needed.
