Method
- Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or use a slow cooker liner.
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Stir the frozen corn kernels into the mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts, spreading it evenly to cover the chicken.
- Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
- Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts and shred them using two forks, or leave them whole depending on your preference.
- Stir the crumbled cotija cheese, lime juice, and chopped cilantro into the sauce in the slow cooker.
- Return the shredded chicken (if applicable) to the slow cooker and mix it with the sauce to coat thoroughly.
- Serve the Street Corn Chicken over rice, in tacos, or with tortilla chips. Garnish with extra lime wedges and chopped cilantro if desired.
Notes
For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños to the sauce. You can also use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter option.
