Simple 4-Ingredient Corn Salad
Ingredients
- 4 large ears sweet corn, husked and silks removed, halved
- 4 green onions, ends trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1 lime, zest and juiced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Preparation
Cook the corn using your preferred method such as grilling, boiling, or microwaving, and do not overcook. Let it cool slightly.
Place a damp kitchen towel or paper towel on a stable work surface and set the cutting board on top.
Set a corn cob cut side down on the cutting board. Hold the top with your non-dominant hand and use a sharp paring knife to remove the kernels by sawing back and forth close to the core. Flip and repeat for all cobs.
Place the kernels in a bowl, add green onions, lime zest and juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste, then toss gently to combine.
