Provided by Guy Fieri

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ear corn, shucked
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for rubbing the corn
1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
2 ripe but firm avocadoes, pitted and diced
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1 teaspoon agave syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
Juice of 1 to 2 limes
1 serrano chile, seeded and finely diced
Pinch cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 scallions, finely chopped

Steps:

Preheat the grill over medium-high heat.
Rub the shucked corn with olive oil and place onto the grill and cook until nicely charred on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Allow to cool slightly prior to removing the kernels and transferring to a large bowl.
Add the cherry tomatoes, avocados, black beans and onions to the grilled corn kernels.
Mix together the 2 tablespoons olive oil, agave, cumin, garlic, lime juice, serrano, cayenne, and salt and black pepper to taste in a separate bowl. Whisk together, as you would to make a vinaigrette, and pour over the corn mixture. Mix together gently so everything is coated well, and then fold in the cilantro and scallions.

4 avocados, sliced in half and pitted
1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Preheat a grill on medium heat to 425 degrees F.
Brush the inside of the avocado halves with the olive oil. Place the avocado halves cut-side down on the grill for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Turn the avocado halves 90 degrees to get cross grill marks and cook for another 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Remove from the grill and season with salt and pepper. Put about 1 heaping tablespoon of salsa into the center well of each avocado half. Garnish with hot sauce and serve.
