Ingredients

Instructions

  1. If using fresh corn, shuck the ears and remove the kernels by cutting them off with a sharp knife. If using frozen corn, thaw it according to package instructions.

  2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until the corn is tender.

  3. Add the cubed cheese to the pan and stir until it starts to melt and combine with the corn.

  4. Pour in the evaporated milk and continue to cook, stirring gently, until the mixture is creamy and the cheese is fully melted.

  5. Season the Choclo Con Queso with salt and pepper, adjusting to taste if needed.

  6. Once the cheese has melted completely and the mixture is heated through, remove the pan from the heat.

  7. Serve the Choclo Con Queso warm, garnished with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for a touch of freshness.
