1/2 C vegetable broth
1/2 C white wine
4 Tbsp butter
1/4 tsp kosher salt
2 Tbsp salsa
1 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 C grated cotija
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Directions
Combine corn, broth, wine, butter and salt in Instapot
Cook on high pressure for 4 minutes.
Quick release and open pot.
Set pot to Saute-normal/medium.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, until most of the moisture has evaporated, then turn off.
Stir in salsa, lime juice, and half of the cotija.
Taste and add salt as desired.
Sprinkle with remaining cotija, green onion, and chile powder.
