Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, gently combine the drained sweet corn, diced tomatoes, diced avocado, finely diced white onion, minced jalapeno pepper, and freshly chopped cilantro. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and freshly squeezed lime juice until emulsified. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Drizzle the lime vinaigrette over the corn salad mixture, ensuring an even distribution. Gently toss the ingredients together, being careful not to mash the avocado. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Season the salad generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed. (1 minute)

05

Step

Cover the bowl with food-grade plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. (30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider grilling the corn before adding it to the salad. The smoky char adds a delightful depth.
If you prefer a sweeter profile, add a drizzle of honey or a pinch of sugar to the vinaigrette.
This salad tastes even better the next day, as the flavors meld and intensify overnight.
Serve with tortilla chips, as a topping for grilled fish or chicken, or as a side dish for your favorite Mexican-inspired dishes.
