Ingredients
  

  • 4 ears corn husks removed
  • 4 tbs olive oil
  • 2 limes juiced, split
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup Mexican sour cream
  • 2 chipotle chiles with Adobo sauce canned
  • 1 cup Cotija or Queso Fresco cheese crumbled
  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • ½ teaspoon chili powder

Instructions
 

  • Split ears of corn lengthwise into four pieces.
