Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the corn ears and cook for 5-7 minutes or until tender and bright yellow. Remove the corn and allow it to cool.

Once cooled, use a sharp knife to carefully cut the kernels off the cob. Place the kernels in a large mixing bowl.

Halve the cherry tomatoes. Dice the cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion into small, bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the cilantro. Add all the vegetables and cilantro to the bowl with the corn.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lime juice, salt, and ground black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 5
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss everything together until well combined.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve the salad immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to chill and allow the flavors to meld together.
