- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add chopped jalapeño and sauté for 1 minute. Add corn and cook for 4-5 minutes until lightly charred and golden. Remove and cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the charred corn mixture with mayonnaise, plain Greek yogurt, salt, chili powder, lime juice, and Cotija cheese. Stir until creamy.
