This Mexican street corn salad takes the flavors we love from the indulgent corn on the cob recipe and puts it all in a cup. The mix of sweet corn, spicy jalapenos, smoky chili powder, tangy lime, cool Cotija cheese and creamy mayo makes it hard to stop at just one scoop.<\/p>\n<p>Corn salad may have you thinking summer, but our esquites recipe uses easy-to-find ingredients and comes together on the stovetop in about 10 minutes, so you can use it any time of year.\u00a0Now grab a spoon and get ready to dig in!<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s the difference between elotes and esquites?<\/h2>\n<p>Esquites are essentially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/mexican-street-corn-elote-recipe\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/mexican-street-corn-elote-recipe\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">elotes<\/a> off the cob.

But esquites are essentially the bowl version of Mexican street corn, with the ingredients mixed in a cup or bowl rather than slathered onto a grilled ear of corn. Esquites are easier to serve and eat.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, this esquites recipe doesn&#8217;t use a grill at all. The corn is cooked in a skillet, so it&#8217;s easy to make this delicious side dish year-round.<\/p>\n<h2>Esquites Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1902748 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Mexican-Street-Corn-Salad-Esquites-THVS23_273592_MR_06_23_23_MexicanStreetCornSalad_1-Enhanced-MLedit.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"mexican street corn salad esquites Ingredients On Surface\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Olive oil<\/li>\n<li>Fresh corn or thawed frozen corn<\/li>\n<li>Mayonnaise<\/li>\n<li>Cotija cheese<\/li>\n<li>Fresh cilantro<\/li>\n<li>Green onions<\/li>\n<li>Jalapeno pepper<\/li>\n<li>Lime juice<\/li>\n<li>Garlic cloves<\/li>\n<li>Chili powder<\/li>\n<li>Salt<\/li>\n<li>Pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Step 1: Cook the corn<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1902749 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Mexican-Street-Corn-Salad-Esquites-THVS23_273592_MR_06_23_23_MexicanStreetCornSalad_2-MLedit.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Corn In Frying Pan To Bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Our recipe uses mayo because crema can sometimes be hard to find.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add more smoky flavor:<\/strong> Bring the flavor of these esquites closer to that of grilled elotes by using grilled corn. You can either use frozen fire-roasted corn from a bag, or you can grill your own and shave the kernels off the cob.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Can you make esquites ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>Esquites are typically served warm. But they&#8217;ll still taste good if you make them ahead of time. You can make esquites up to four days in advance; store them in the refrigerator in an airtight storage container. Just be sure to take them out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before serving to let them come to room temperature.<\/p>\n<h2>Esquites Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>What do you serve with esquites?<\/h3>\n<p>Mexican street corn salad is a perfect side dish for Mexican recipes like sizzling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/flavorful-chicken-fajitas\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/flavorful-chicken-fajitas\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">chicken fajitas<\/a>.
