Zesty Jalapeño Esquites

Transform your corn side dish with this esquites recipe, a flavorful take on Mexican street corn. Charred in a cast iron skillet, coated with our Zesty Jalapeño Aioli, and topped with cotija cheese, chili powder, cilantro, and lime juice, this easy recipe is a crowd-pleaser that doesn’t require a grill.

Chef Tip: To intensify the charred flavor, let the corn sit undisturbed in the hot skillet for a few extra minutes before stirring. This will create deeper caramelization and a more robust, smoky taste in your esquites.

Ingredients

  • 4 ears of corn, shucked or 1 lb. frozen corn, thawed

  • Salt

  • ½ cup cotija cheese, crumbled

  • 1 tsp Chili powder

  • Cilantro, chopped, to taste

  • Juice & zest of 1 lime

  • Haven's Kitchen Zesty Jalapeño Aioli

Steps

STEP 1

STEP 2

Transfer corn to a medium bowl, and coat with Zesty Jalapeño Aioli. Add cotija cheese, chili powder, cilantro, and lime juice. Serve.
