Step by Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Grill the corn for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender with char marks.
  2. After grilling, cool the corn slightly and slice kernels off, placing them in a mixing bowl.
  3. Chop the cucumber, finely chop red onion and cilantro, then add to the bowl with corn.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Drizzle the dressing over corn and veggies, and gently fold together to combine.
  6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving, garnishing with cilantro and chili powder.
