5. Top with Corn: Distribute the sautéed corn mixture evenly over the cheese.
6. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
7. Make the Topping: While the pizza is baking, mix the mayonnaise and lime juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
8. Finish with Cotija: Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled cotija cheese on top.
