- cotija cheese
- tajin seasoning

Instructions

- Remove the corn from the air fryer and brush it with the chipotle mayo. Sprinkle some cotija cheese, cilantro, and tajin on top, and enjoy warm!
Notes
- If you want the corn to be really charred, cook for a few extra minutes.
- Want a buttery taste? Brush the corn with a little bit of butter before brushing it with the chipotle mayo sauce.
- If you don't have tajine seasoning on hand, use chipotle powder or chili powder instead.
- For best results, use fresh sweet corn.
