Copycat Chili’s Roasted Street Corn

featured in Can I Make Chili's Baby Back Ribs Faster Than Delivery?

Chili's famous roasted street corn is loved for its smoky flavor, achieved by charring over a hot grill. But what if you want to recreate this tasty corn at home but don't have a grill? No need to worry; Katie's got your back. She recreated all the wonderful smoky flavors in her kitchen sans grill, opting instead for the oven's heat. After roasting the corn in the oven, Katie generously coats the corn with a velvety, zesty sour cream mayo infused with a hint of chili powder, then sprinkles it with cotija cheese and fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness. If you don't have cotija cheese, grated Parmesan is a delicious substitute.
