  3. In the bowl, add chopped red onion, minced garlic, diced jalapeño, and crumbled cotija cheese. Toss gently.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  5. Drizzle the dressing over the corn mixture and gently fold it in until well-coated.
  6. Garnish with additional cilantro and cotija cheese. Serve immediately or let it chill.
