Notes
- If you'd like to use fresh corn on the cob for this recipe, you'll need four ears. Shuck the corn and remove all the silks. Place the corn on a charcoal or gas grill away from direct heat and cook, turning frequently, until the corn has lots of grill marks and a bit of charring. Cut the kernels away from the cob and then combine with the remaining ingredients in the recipe.
- Store leftovers in a tightly sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freezing is not recommended.
