A delicious fusion of classic deviled eggs with the bold, zesty flavors of Mexican street corn, perfect for parties and gatherings.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup cotija cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup corn kernels (grilled or roasted)
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Extra cotija cheese, corn, and cilantro for garnish
  • Optional: hot sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 10-12 minutes.
  2. Drain the hot water and cool eggs under cold running water or in an ice bath. Peel the eggs once cool.
  3. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks to a mixing bowl.
  4. Mash the yolks with a fork, then add mayonnaise, cotija cheese, corn, lime juice, cilantro, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  5. Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites.
  6. Garnish with extra cotija cheese, corn, cilantro, and a sprinkle of chili powder. Add a dash of hot sauce if desired.
  7. Chill until ready to serve.

Notes
