Grilled corn is tossed with mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice and spices in this delicious Tex-Mex side dish (Torchy's Tacos copycat). Preheat grill for high heat. Brush corn with vegetable oil. Grill corn, turning every 2-3 minutes, until slightly charred on all sides. Cool and cut corn kernels off cob.
Torchy’s is best known for its tacos, which we absolutely love. Having said that, the two other menu favorites for us is the Mexican street corn and the queso. I still need to come up with a copycat recipe for the queso, but today I’m sharing a copycat recipe for the street corn.
Sometimes street corn is served as an entire cob on a skewer, but this recipe is for mexican corn off the cob. I personally think it’s easier to prepare that way! HEAT CORN. Heat a cast iron skillet on high heat and add the corn. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. ADD INGREDIENTS. Remove from heat and add in butter and salt.
