FRIED SKILLET CORN SALAD



Fried Skillet Corn Salad image

In the South, any kind of vegetable side dish can be called a salad. We like to say that if you add mayonnaise and celery to something, you've got a salad. While this "salad" has neither mayo nor celery, it can be served cold or hot, so I think that counts, right? Sweet summer corn is sautéed with pork belly, red onion, bell pepper and tomatoes for a colorful and savory side.

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups fresh corn kernels (from 6 ears of corn)
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
