Mexican Corn Salad
  1. In a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil until shimmering.

  2. Add corn; season with 1 tsp. salt and toss to coat.

  3. Cook, undisturbed, until charred on one side, about 2 minutes.

  4. Continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until kernels are charred and blistered, 8 to 10 minutes.

  5. A few kernels should begin to 'pop' and leap as they get hotter, but reduce heat to medium if they start to smoke.

  6. Transfer to a medium bowl.

  7. Add scallions, jalapeño, cilantro, cotija, crema, mayonnaise, lime juice, and paprika and mix well to combine; adjust seasonings, if needed.

  8. Top salad with a few cilantro leaves. Sprinkle with paprika.
