MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD
From bloggers AHEADOFTHYME - this was simple and delicious - I know it looks a little soupy but it really was delicious.
- 4 ears corn on the cob, husked
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1/2 avocado, chopped
- 1 jalapeño pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (or cotija cheese), grated
- 1/2 cup Mexican crema (or sour cream)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 lime, juiced and zested
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- lime wedges (for serving)
- Preheat the grill to high (or to 400 F). Place the corn on the grill and grill for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until nicely charred and cooked through. (You can also roast the corn in the oven at 400 F for 25 minutes or cook in boiling water for 10-15 minutes. However, grilling yields a sweeter and creamier taste). Set aside on a plate and allow the corn to cool until cool enough to handle.
- Cut the corn off the cob and transfer the corn kernels to a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients. Stir everything together until well combined. Adjust lime juice, salt, and pepper as necessary, to taste.
- Garnish with lime wedges, and serve.
