Provided by ROOTIETOOT

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 ears corn, husked
½ teaspoon cumin seeds
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
½ medium poblano pepper, diced
2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place corn on the preheated grill and cook, turning often, until roasted and charred all over, about 10 minutes.
  • While corn is grilling, heat a small, dry skillet over high heat. Add cumin seeds and shake constantly until dark and aromatic, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and crush in a mortar and pestle; set aside.
  • Remove corn from the grill and let cool. Cut off kernels with a knife and discard cobs.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 of the corn kernels and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn has toasty brown bits on it, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Add remaining oil and corn to the skillet with garlic, crushed cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for 3 to 5 minutes, then add to the first batch of corn.
  • Add bell pepper, poblano pepper, green onions, cilantro, and lime juice. Mix everything together and let sit until flavors have blended, about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn. Fresh corn has a sweeter flavor and more tender kernels than canned or frozen corn.
  • Choose a ripe red pepper. A ripe red pepper will be firm and have a deep red color.
  • Cut the corn and red pepper into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the vegetables will steam instead of caramelize.
  • Be patient. Caramelizing the vegetables takes time. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with burnt vegetables.
  • Season the salad to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the salad warm or at room temperature. The salad is best when served warm or at room temperature. You can also chill the salad for a refreshing side dish.

Conclusion:

This skillet caramelized corn and red pepper salad is a simple and delicious side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. The salad is made with fresh corn, red pepper, and a few simple seasonings. The vegetables are caramelized in a skillet until they are tender and slightly charred. The salad is then tossed with a vinaigrette dressing and served warm or at room temperature. This salad is a great way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer vegetables.
