Ingredients

2 cups corn kernels

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 cup cotija cheese

¼ cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon chili powder

8 small tortillas

¼ cup cilantro, chopped

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and add the corn kernels. Cook them until they are slightly charred, about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

In a large bowl, combine the roasted corn, mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined.

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave, ensuring they are pliable and warm, and ready to be filled.

Divide the corn mixture evenly over each of the tortillas. Top with a generous amount of crumbled cotija cheese and fresh chopped cilantro.

Serve the tacos immediately, allowing your guests to enjoy the warm charred corn and the fresh flavors of cilantro and lime.
