This Street Corn Pasta Salad Mash-up is AmazingWhat we’ve got here is the flavor I crave from my favorite elotes/esquites Mexican street corn, in pasta salad form, and I promise it will be the star of your next BBQ! It has SO much flavor, including a crema sauce with hints of chipotle. It’s just so good; main dish or side dish worthy, paired with any favorite Summer BBQ recipes.
Cook pasta according to package instructions, in salted boiling water. Drain then rinse with cold water to cool it off.
Sauté Corn: Add butter to a large skillet over medium heat then add onion, corn and chipotle peppers and stir. Turn heat to high, cover with lid and sauté, stirring occasionally, until corn is charred and tender, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat then transfer to a plate to cool completely.
Sauce: Mix sauce ingredients in a bowl: mayo, sour cream, tajin, lime and milk.
Combine: Add pasta to a large mixing bowl then add cooled corn. Stir in sauce, and top with cotija cheese and cilantro.
To Make Ahead: Store cooked pasta and corn in a covered bowl in the fridge. Make sauce, but store separately. Mix sauce and pasta just before serving this elote pasta salad.
