Ingredients

  • 6 corn
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 5 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • ¼ cup cotija

Instructions

  • Pull husks of corn down, without pulling them off, to expose silks.
  • Remove silk strings from corn.
  • Pull corn husks back up, and soak in water for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to high.
  • Add corn to grill, cook on high, turning every 5 minutes to grill each side equally and prevent burning.
  • When corn is soft to the touch, remove from grill and remove husks.
  • Mix butter and garlic powder in a bowl, then generously slather on corn (or mix sriracha with butter if you'd like it to be a bit more of a subtle flavor).
  • Top with crumbled cotija, and squirts of sriracha (if you'd like a bolder flavor) .
  • Serve immediately.
