All the flavor of street corn, none of the mess of eating it off a cob. Corn gets a quick char in a pan, then gets tossed with a creamy, garlicky, spicy mix and scooped up with chips. That’s the whole move.
It comes together fast: brown the corn in a hot skillet, add to everything else, mix, done. We used low-fat feta cheese, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, white onion, and a good hit of hot sauce for the kick. Greek yogurt ties it all together.
