This Creamy Chipotle Corn Dip is bold, creamy, no-fuss, and tastes like summer in a bowl. With sweet corn, smoky chipotles, creamy queso fresco, and no oven required, it’s perfect for backyard hangouts, BBQs, and anyone who believes dips are a food group. The slight heat of the smoky chipotles is balanced by the fresh corn, lime, and cilantro, and the creamy queso fresco and sour cream.

Instructions

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat.

Add the corn, red onion, jalapeño, chili powder, and salt and cook until the corn is golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Remove the corn mixture from the heat and mix in ½ tbsp lime juice.

Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, ½ cup of the cooked corn mixture, and 1 tbsp lime juice to a food processor and blend until smooth.

In a bowl, combine the blended mixture with the remaining cooked corn (optional: reserve 1 to 2 tbsp corn for garnishing the dip), all of the cilantro, and queso fresco.

Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Corn Roasting Secret 🌽
For maximum flavor, char the corn kernels on a hot skillet or grill before adding to the dip, which will enhance the natural sweetness and add a smoky depth.
Chipotle Heat Control 🌶️
Start with half the recommended amount of chipotle pepper in adobo and taste, then gradually add more to control the heat level precisely to your preference.
Queso Fresco Texture Hack 🧀
Crumble the queso fresco by hand instead of using a knife to create more rustic, varied texture and prevent the cheese from becoming too uniform.
Flavor Blooming Technique 🌈
Let the dip sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and intensify, creating a more complex taste profile.
Fresh Corn Pro Tip 🔪
When cutting corn kernels off the cob, use a bundt pan to catch the kernels and collect the sweet corn milk, which adds extra richness to the dip.
