Description

A delicious grilled corn recipe topped with a creamy Greek yogurt sauce and fresh cilantro.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ears fresh sweet corn (shucked, silks removed)
  • 1 Olive oil spray (for grilling)
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt (mayonnaise also works)
  • ¼ cup light sour cream
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ oz. taco seasoning
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice (from ½ lime)
  • 1 tsp flake sea salt (or sea salt)
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • ¾ cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 whole lime (cut into wedges)

Instructions

  1. Spray or brush each ear of corn lightly with olive oil.

  4. Take corn off of grill and brush liberally with Greek yogurt mixture.
  5. Sprinkle each ear of corn with cilantro, shredded parmesan, and squeeze with more lime juice.
