Grilled sweet corn makes this black bean salsa extra delicious!
Ingredients
- 6 ears Sweet Corn, Husks And Silk Removed
- 5 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
- 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1 whole Lime, Juiced
- 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
- ½ whole Chipotle Pepper, Minced
- ½ teaspoons Adobo Sauce (from The Can Of Chipotle Peppers)
- ½ teaspoons Honey
- 2 whole Roma Tomatoes Seeded And Chopped
- ¼ cups Diced Red Onion
- 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Cilantro, Chopped
Preparation
Brush the ears of corn all over with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Preheat your grill to medium-high. Place corn onto grill grates, close the lid and grill for 15-20 minutes. Turn frequently. Remove when the corn has light and even grill marks and let cool.
In a small bowl or jar, add the lemon and lime juice, garlic, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, honey and remaining 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) olive oil. Shake and set aside.
Now the corn should be cool enough to handle, so run a sharp knife down the cob to remove as much of the corn kernels as possible. Add the corn into a large bowl. Next add in the diced tomatoes, onion, black beans and chopped cilantro. Give that a light toss and add the vinaigrette.
Stir well until combined and serve at room temperature with corn chips or on top of your favorite tacos!
