What You Get
Corn
Cilantro
Lime
Feta cheese
Mayo
Ancho chile powder
What You'll Need
Vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Step 1
Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high heat, and oil the grate. (Alternatively, you can cook the corn cobs in batches in a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan that’s been preheated over medium-high heat.)
Step 2
Shuck the corn, removing the husks and silk. Pick the cilantro leaves, toss the stems, and roughly chop the leaves. Cut the lime into wedges for serving. Transfer the feta cheese to a plate.
Step 3
When the grill is hot, add the corn cobs in a single layer and cook until the corn is lightly charred all over, 3 to 4 minutes per side. When ready, transfer to a serving platter to cool slightly.
Step 4
Spread a thin layer of mayo all over the corn. Roll the corn cobs in the crumbled feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the ancho chile powder and cilantro leaves. Serve warm with the lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
