Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 cups corn kernels cut from the cob
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 red bell pepper chopped
  • 1/2 red onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 5 green onions chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper diced
  • 1/2 avocado chopped
  • 4 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup cotija cheese crumbled

Instructions

  1. Cut the corn off the cob, or use canned or frozen corn.
  2. Preheat the oil on the stove at high heat. Stir in the corn and cook for about 3- 5 minutes or until the corn starts to char. Add an extra few minutes to the cooking time if you’re using frozen corn.
  3. Transfer to a large bowl and cool for a few minutes.
  4. After it has cooled, add the remaining ingredients. Stir well! Adjust the amount of the lime juice and salt and pepper to your taste.
  5. Garnish with more cheese and cilantro.

Notes

  • Substitute feta cheese if you don’t have cotija cheese.
