Everybody brings buffalo chicken dip. This is what I’m bringing instead. 👀
Street Corn Rotel Dip 🌽
Creamy, cheesy, a little smoky, and loaded with sweet corn, Rotel, jalapeños, and cotija cheese. Basically, Mexican street corn met party dip, and neither one is going back.
The kind of appetizer you make for game day and then conveniently forget to put away when everyone leaves. 😂
Here’s what you’ll need:
🌽 2 cans (15 oz each) corn, drained
🌶️ 1 can (10 oz) Rotel, drained
🧀 8 oz cream cheese
• ½ cup sour cream
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese
• ½ cup cotija cheese
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp chili powder
• ½ tsp each paprika, garlic powder, and cumin
• Juice of 1 lime
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Jalapeño, cilantro, and Tajín (optional)
How to make it:
1. Melt butter in a skillet and char the corn for 3 to 4 minutes.
2. Reduce heat and stir in cream cheese, sour cream, and mayo until smooth.
3. Add Rotel, corn, seasonings, lime juice, and jalapeño.
4. Stir in shredded cheese and half the cotija.
5. Top with remaining cotija. For a baked finish, pop it in the oven at 375°F for 15 to 18 minutes.
6. Finish with cilantro, Tajín, and lime. Grab the tortilla chips!
📌 Save this one for your next party, football Sunday, or snack night.
Now I need to know: are you scooping this up with tortilla chips or eating it straight from the skillet? Because I know some of you. 😂
