Heat oil in a cast iron pan until it shimmers. Add corn in one layer and leave it alone so it blisters.
6 min - 2
Toss once, then char the second side. You want dark spots, not a full stir fry.
4 min - 3
Whisk mayo, sour cream, lime juice and zest, and chili powder into a loose dressing.
2 min - 4
Fold the warm corn into the dressing. Top with cotija, coriander, and jalapeno.
