Ingredients

2 ears fresh corn
1 medium avocado
1 cup cherry tomatoes
0.25 medium red onion
0.25 cup fresh cilantro
1 large lime
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by shucking the corn. Use a sharp knife to carefully cut the kernels off the cob. Set the kernels aside in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the corn.

Step 3

Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl.

Step 4

Chop the fresh cilantro and mix it into the salad.

Step 5

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into bite-sized chunks. Add to the bowl.

Step 6

Zest the lime and then juice it. Combine the zest and juice with olive oil in a small bowl. Add salt and black pepper, whisk together, and pour over the salad.

Step 7

Gently toss all the ingredients together, ensuring the avocado is well coated with the lime dressing to prevent browning.

Step 8

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour to let the flavors meld.
