Instructions

Remove the husks from the corn, keeping the core attached.
Preheat a grill or cast iron pan and grill the corn, turning it until it has slight char marks on all sides.
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and chopped cilantro to make the topping mixture.
Take the grilled corn off the heat, and use a basting brush to apply the mayonnaise mixture generously all over the corn.
Squeeze fresh lime juice on the corn and sprinkle it with Parmesan and cotija cheese. Finally, add chili powder to taste and serve with lime wedges.

Notes

The corn can also be boiled if grilling is not an option.
Feel free to adjust the chili powder based on your spice preference.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
