– 3 fresh ears of corn – 2 Hass Avocado peeled, diced, seed discarded – 1 lb cherry tomatoes halved – 1/4 cup red onion diced (+ more as desired) – 2 limes juiced – 1 red chili pepper sliced – 1/3 cup fresh cilantro – 1/4 tsp cumin or to taste – 1/2 tsp smoked paprika – 1-2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil OPTIONAL (omit for WFPB & Plantricious Diets) – S & P to taste
Preheat a cast iron grill pan or skillet over medium high heat. Pull the leaves and silk back from the corn then place them on the hot skillet. Shortly you will start smelling the smoke and hear the corn pop. Check the corn as browning happens fast. Turn around and roast / grill it on all sides to your liking. Remove from heat.
Add the tomatoes, avocado, onion, red chili pepper and cilantro to the salad bowl then squeeze one of limes all over the top. Sprinkle with the cumin, smoked paprika and a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle with some olive oil if desired and toss to coat.
