Chili's Roasted Corn Recipe
I love how the roasting process caramelizes the corn kernels, adding depth to the overall taste. For the best results, choose fresh corn on the cob when it’s in season – the natural sweetness really shines through! A key trick is to roast the corn at a high temperature (425°F) to achieve that delicious charred exterior while keeping the inside tender and juicy.

Total Time 30 minutes mins
- 4 ears Corn
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Sour Cream
- 1 tbsp Lime Juice
- 1 tsp Chili Powder
- 1/4 cup Cotija Cheese crumbled
- Salt to taste
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Remove the husks and silk from the corn cobs.
Place the corn in a cast-iron skillet or on a baking sheet.
Drizzle the corn with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Roast the corn in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until charred and tender.
While the corn roasts, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and chili powder in a small bowl.
Remove the corn from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Brush the roasted corn with the prepared sauce and sprinkle with crumbled Cotija cheese.
