    Using a sharp knife, remove kernels from the corn cob. Freeze freshly shucked kernels overnight.

    Place fresh corn into a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Cover and cook, without stirring, until a char develops on the corn, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.

    Meanwhile, toss Romaine, chicken, cherry tomatoes, red onion, green onion, cilantro, jalapeño, cotija cheese, and avocado together in a bowl. Toss in charred corn.

    For dressing, whisk crema con sal, mayonnaise, lime juice, and Tajin together in a small bowl. Drizzle over salad.

    Cook’s Note

    If you don't have Tajin, you can mix together 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
