Ingredients
- 2 ears fresh corn husked
- 1 teaspoon salt divided
- 5 Tablespoons olive oil divided
- 2 limes juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 avocado diced into ½" pieces
- 1½ cups cherry tomatoes halved
- 2/3 cup red onion diced
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Clean grill and prepare for direct heat over medium, about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Brush corn with 2 Tablespoons olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Grill over direct heat, with lid closed, until char marks have formed and corn is tender. This will take 10-15 minutes. Turn corn occasionally. Remove from grill and cool enough to handle. Cut the kernels from the cobs and place into large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil and salt, lime juice, cumin and ground black pepper. Set aside.
- Add diced avocado, sliced tomatoes, diced onion and chopped cilantro to bowl with corn. Pour dressing on top. Toss to gently combine. Serve immediately.
