Chili-Lime Sweet Corn Salad
Crunchy, spicy, tangy and sweet, this salad is bursting with flavor.
Ingredients:
4 ears sweet corn, shucked
1 red Bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 jalapeno or Anaheim pepper, seeded and diced
½ Walla Walla sweet onion, minced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
2 limes
1 teaspoon chili powder
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper
Method:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high and grill corn, rotating every few minutes, until entire husk is slightly charred. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
2. In a large bowl, set each piece of corn stem end down and using a sharp knife, cut kernels from the cob. Add chopped peppers, onions and cilantro or parsley to bowl.
3. In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by zesting the limes into a bowl, then juicing. (You’ll need about ¼ cup lime juice for reference.) Whisk in chili powder and salt and pepper to taste. Toss dressing into corn salad to coat and check for seasoning again before serving.
