COPYCAT CHILI'S ROASTED STREET CORN RECIPE BY TASTY

• In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, salt, and chili powder.
• Remove corn from the oven and let cool slightly. Brush all over with the mayonnaise mixture, then sprinkle with the Cotija, cilantro, and more chili powder.
• Enjoy!

GUACAMOLE WITH GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Prepare a coal or gas grill so it's at high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly blackened in spots all over, 5 to 15 minutes. When corn is cool enough to handle, hold one ear upright in a large bowl and, using a sharp knife, cut off the kernels. Discard the cob, then repeat with the other ear. Let cool completely before adding to the finished guacamole.
• Meanwhile, in a large granite mortar and pestle or molcajete (see Tip), combine the onion, chile, cilantro and salt. Pound into a rough paste, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the paste to a large bowl.
• Add the flesh of the avocados and the lime juice. Crush the avocados into a chunky dip using the pestle or the back of a large spoon. Once corn kernels are completely cooled, add them and the Cotija to the large bowl, reserving a little of each for garnish. Fold together the guacamole, corn and cheese, and season to taste with more salt and lime juice. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro, Cotija and corn. Serve immediately with tortilla chips. (Try to eat in one sitting. Leftover guacamole stored in the fridge turns brown quickly.)

CHILI'S FIRE-ROASTED CORN GUACAMOLE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a deep fryer or on the stovetop in a large pot or Dutch oven, heat oil to 350°F.
• Preheat grill to hot fire.
• Husk and wash corn.
• When oil is hot deep fry corn for 1 minute. Remove and set aside.
• Place jalapeños in hot oil and deep fry for 1 minute. Remove.
• Place corn and jalapenos on grill. Cook, turning, until lightly blackened evenly on all sides. Alternately, blacken under the broiler, turning frequently. Remove from grill (or oven) and allow to cool enough to touch.
• Remove corn kernels from cob. Measure out 1 cup of kernels. Set aside.
• Remove stem from jalapeño. Finely chop. Set aside.
• When Ready to Enjoy Guacamole
• Starting at the top, with a very sharp knife, cut down into each avocado until you hit the pit. Cut completely around the avocado, top to bottom, touching the pit the entire time.
• Pull the two halves of the avocado apart and remove the pit with a spoon.
• Use the spoon to scoop the avocado out of the skin. (Some people like to score the avocado with a knife before scooping.) Make sure to gently scrap the skin to get the dark, creamy "good stuff."
• Place 2/3 to 3/4 of the softest avocados in a mixing bowl. Using a fork, roughly mash them.
• Place the remaining firmest avocados on a cutting board or plate and chop into 1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces. Add these to the mashed avocado in the bowl and mix well.
• Add pico de gallo, roasted corn kernels, roasted jalapeños, lime juice, cilantro and salt.
• Sprinkle with cotija cheese.
• Serve immediately with tortilla chips and salsa.
