Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ears corn (husks and silks removed)
2 -3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, coarsely chopped

Add half the garlic and saute, stirring constantly, 20 to 30 seconds. Add half of the corn and saute, stirring occasionally, until golden and just tender, 3 - 4 minutes. Add half the thyme and green onions and saute for 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a large bowl, Repeat with the remaining butter, 1 tablespoons of the oil and the remaining garlic, corn, thyme and green onions. Transfer the mixture to the bowl. Let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
  • In another bowl, combine the tomatoes, cheese, the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper and toss gently to mix. Add the tomato mixture, the lime juice and basil to the cooled corn and toss to mix. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt, pepper and more lime juice. Serve at room temperature.

PAN-ROASTED CORN AND TOMATO SALAD



Pan-Roasted Corn and Tomato Salad image

You can take a corn and tomato salad in a number of directions, but at the end of the day it shouldn't be much more than a dish you can make perfectly only in mid- to late summer, and one that showcases its primary ingredients. My version here marries corn and tomatoes with chile, avocado, cilantro and lime. It is just plain good. At the end, you've got meaty smokiness from bacon; that incredible sweetness of corn; the fruity acidity of tomato; the tender, smooth fattiness of avocado, and the sharpness of chile. It's a summer winner, one that you shouldn't even try after the first frost.

CORN SALAD WITH TOMATOES, FETA AND MINT



Corn Salad With Tomatoes, Feta and Mint image

Fresh raw corn shucked from the cob is ideal here. The juice from the tomatoes delivers just the right amount of acidity, so there's no need for vinegar. Eat this as is, by the bowl, or toss it with cooked rice or beans for a more filling meal - you'll want to add oil and vinegar accordingly. In midsummer, with peak-season produce, there is nothing better.
