QUICK CORN SALAD FOR 2



Quick Corn Salad for 2 image

I CREATED this recipe because my family is so fond of corn. I tried to add a little zip to it with the marinade and I think I succeeded. I double or triple the recipe for potlucks or when we have dinner guests. In either case, someone's always sure to ask for the recipe. -Mildred Sherrer Bay City, Texas

SUNNY'S QUICK CORN AND PICO SALAD

How to make Sunny's Quick Corn and Pico Salad

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ears fresh corn, husks removed
1 tablespoon hot sauce (I like Cholula here)
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, rinsed clean in a colander and shaken to dry
1 cup prepared pico de gallo (be sure to buy the "dry" kind--no juice or sauce, just chopped veggies)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Using a knife, cut the kernels off each cob and place in a large bowl. Using the back, unsharpened side of your knife or a flat metal spatula, firmly scrape the length of each bare cob over a small bowl to release the corn milk. Add the hot sauce, lime juice and cumin to the corn milk and whisk. Pour the dressing over the corn and toss to coat.
  • Add the black beans, pico de gallo and a small pinch of salt to the bowl with the corn. Toss and serve chilled or at room temperature.
