Chipotle Corn Salsa
Chipotle Corn Salsa combines sweet yellow corn with finely chopped jalapeños, red onion, fresh cilantro, and citrus juices for bright acidity, balanced with salt and optional black pepper. Letting the mixture rest in the fridge allows the flavors to meld, producing a flavorful, smoky salsa with a zip of heat and fresh herbaceous notes.
