Roasted Corn and Tomato Relish image

I made a similar recipe from a Cooking Light magazine several years ago. Over time it has evolved into my own. It is really nice for a summertime barbecue or just an anytime side dish.

Categories     Corn

Time 25m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups corn kernels, cleaned (about 4 ears)
1 cup tomatoes, chopped & seeded
1/3 cup red bell pepper, roasted, seeded, & chopped
1/3 cup red onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil, extra virgin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons thyme, fresh leaves

Steps:

  • Soak cleaned corn in a bowl of water for approximately 30 minutes.
  • Heat a grill and place corn straight on the cooking surface. Cook until beautiful black & caramelized grill marks appear, turning frequently. DO NOT BOIL OR MICROWAVE CORN (sorry, but this is a big obnoxious NO-NO with me) or you will lose all of the sweet natural flavor.
  • Once corn has cooled enough to handle, cut off all of kernels. Add all of the remaining ingredients and mix together. Serve at room temperature or cold.
