Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large ears of corn, husked
1/3 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed
2 cups shredded red cabbage (see Tip)
1 large tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup minced red onion

Steps:

Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a Dutch oven. Add corn, cover and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cobs using a sharp knife.
Meanwhile, place pine nuts in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat and cook, stirring, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.
Whisk lime juice, oil, cilantro, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the corn, pine nuts, beans, cabbage, tomato and onion; toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
