Equipment

  • Grill or Grill Pan

Ingredients

Salad:

  • 2 ears of fresh sweet corn
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes
  • 1 ripe avocado firm but ripe, diced
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped

Honey Lime Dressing:

  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
  • Dash of cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Make the dressing by combining the oil, lime juice, honey, garlic, sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste in a small glass jar. Seal with lid and shake until well combined. Set aside until needed.
  • Cook the corn by removing the husk from the corn. Heat a grill pan or grill over medium-high heat, and grill for 10 minutes. The corn should have some brown spots and be tender and not mushy.
  • Cut the corn off the cob, then scrape the cob with the back of your knife to get the juices. Set aside and let cool.
  • Prepare the salad by combining the sliced tomatoes, avocado, cilantro, and grilled corn with the well-whisked honey-lime dressing and mix gently so everything is evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the avocados.
  • Let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors time to mingle. Enjoy.
