Pioneer Woman Mexican Street Corn Salad Recipes

STREET CORN

Steps:

• For the spice mix: Cut the tops off the guajillo chiles, shake out the seeds, put the chiles in a bowl, cover them with boiling water and let them soak for about 30 minutes to rehydrate.
• Drain the chiles, then put them in a blender with the oil, ancho chile, cumin, coriander, peppercorns, salt, cinnamon and lime juice and blend until combined.
• For the corn: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Cut the corn in half and brush with the spice mix. Cook until charred in spots and grill-marked, turning halfway through, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with lime juice and cotija cheese.

CHICKEN STREET CORN SKILLET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a bowl, mix the chicken, corn, cream cheese, mayonnaise, green chiles, garlic, green onions, butter, chili powder, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup Cotija and 1/4 cup cilantro. Juice in 1 lime and mix well.
• Add the rice to a 10-inch ovenproof skillet or baking dish and spread to cover the bottom. Top with the chicken and corn mixture, spreading as needed. Top with the pepper jack cheese and a sprinkle of chili powder. Bake until bubbly and browned, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and top with the remaining 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1/4 cup Cotija and 1/4 cup cilantro. Cut the remaining 2 limes into wedges. Serve with the warmed tortillas, chips and lime wedges on the side, and with the Tomato Avocado Salad.
• Add the tomatoes, avocado, green onions, lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper to a bowl. Toss to combine. Garnish with the cilantro.

MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium heat. Add frozen corn and let cook until corn starts to char, stirring occasionally (it took about 7-8 minutes before my corn was lightly charred).
• While the corn is cooking, mix together mayonnaise, cheese, lime juice, jalapeno, cilantro, red onion, garlic, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. When corn is done, gently fold it in with other ingredients.
• Serve immediately and store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
