Grill corn until charred, about 10 minutes, turning occasionally.

Allow corn to cool slightly, then cut kernels off the cob into a bowl.

Add lime juice and mayonnaise to the corn; mix well.

Stir in crumbled cotija cheese, chopped cilantro, and diced red onion.

Add finely chopped jalapeño for heat, if desired.

Season with salt, black pepper, and chili powder to taste.

Serve chilled or at room temperature, garnished with extra cotija cheese and cilantro.
