Ingredients
- 3 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
- 2 large avocado
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons lime (juice)
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Brush the ears of corn with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 3
Place the corn on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes, until the kernels are lightly charred. Remove from the grill and allow the corn to cool slightly.
Step 4
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the kernels off the cob and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Step 5
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl with the corn.
Step 6
Dice the avocados into bite-sized chunks and add them to the bowl.
Step 7
Finely chop the fresh cilantro and thinly slice the red onion. Add both to the mixing bowl.
Step 8
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lime juice, sea salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Step 9
Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Step 10
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
