  • FNL grill v elote
    EloteServes 6 6 ears of corn, husks intact 1 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon hot sauce 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon sugar ¼ cup chicken stock ¼ cup cotija cheese, ground or crumbled, for garnish 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, for garnish Chili powder to taste, for garnish Crispy corn tortilla chips for scooping Over a medium-hot grill, roast the corn until the husks are well charred, about 5 minutes. Turn occasionally so as not to burn. Set the roasted ears aside until cool enough to handle, then shuck them. Cut the kernels off the cobs. When ready to eat, mix the mayo, hot sauce, lime juice, salt, pepper, sugar, and chicken stock in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and heat until warmed through. Pour into a bowl and garnish with the cheese, cilantro and chili powder. Serve immediately with crispy tortillas.

Place half of the tomatoes in the center of each piece of foil, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Seal the packets by bringing the long sides of the foil up towards the center and folding the edges over a couple of times to create a seal. Bring the ends up towards the center and crimp the foil shut. Grill the tomato packets and citrus fruit Heat your grill to high (550°F) and close the lid. Wait at least 15 minutes before lowering the heat to medium-high (450°F) and continuing. Place the tomato packets on the grill. Place the lemon and lime halves cut side down on the grill. Close the lid and allow to cook for 5 minutes. To grill the lettuce: Oil the grill grates with a vegetable oil–soaked paper towel held with a long pair of tongs. Drizzle olive oil over the cut sides of the romaine hearts and season with salt and pepper. Open the grill lid and place the lettuces cut side down on the grill. Cook all the vegetables with the lid open for about 3 minutes, or until the lettuce develops grill marks. Remove the tomato packets from the grill and open them carefully to protect yourself from hot steam escaping. Place the romaine hearts on a platter and pour the tomatoes over them. Squeeze the lemon and lime halves over all and serve immediately. You can prepare the tomato packets a few hours before you plan on grilling them. Otherwise this should be prepared immediately before serving.
