Sometimes when we hear about a TikTok recipe that has gone viral, we worry about exactly what we might end up seeing (looking at you pink sauce). Then there are the times when the recipes end up sounding (and looking) amazing, because we have definitely seen some recipes that we would call downright stunning.

And the latest viral TikTok recipe is definitely in the category of delicious sounding dishes. In this case we are talking about taking Mexican Street Corn (also known as Elote) and creating nachos with the traditional side dish.

According to Taste of Home, not only is the recipe relatively easy to follow for ourselves, but it is one that only needs a handful of ingredients to bring it together (and in some cases, you may have most if not all of the ingredients on hand already). So who made this must-try TikTok recipe? That would be TikTok creator @janinehudz.

So what do we need to make this one for ourselves and how do we bring it all together?

The latest must-try TikTok recipe brings the Mexican Street Corn to the Nachos plate

What you need:

  • 3 cups of corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 jalapeno diced
  • 1/4 cup of sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice
  • Shredded Cheese (Monterey Jack or Cheddar Cheese)
  • Cotija Cheese
  • Tortilla Chips
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Cilantro (this is a garnish)

What to do:

In a skillet, cook salt and pepper seasoned corn for approximately two minutes. Remove from the heat and add in one tablespoon of the lime juice and your diced up jalapeno.

Over in a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, and the rest of the lime juice.

Take a baking dish and add your tortilla chips. Sprinkle the chips with your shredded cheese. Bake the chips at 375 degrees for five minutes.

Once your chips are out of the oven, top with the corn mixture, the sour cream/mayonnaise mix, and cotija cheese. Finally you garnish with the cilantro and you are good to go.
