Skillet Roasted Corn Salsa

Roasted Corn Salsa is packed with flavor and is easy to make any time of the year. The pan roasting brings out the sweetness of the corn, and the touch of red onion, pickled jalapeño, and chiles, along with the dash of chili powder and lime just brings it all together. This is one salsa you and your guests will be going back to again and again! It's that good!

  • Fresh corn really makes this salsa shine, but we've used frozen corn, and it's excellent, too. Let it thaw first (you can easily defrost it in your microwave). We don't recommend using canned corn. 
  • The salsa will keep covered in the fridge for up to 1 week. The salsa is best served at room temperature or slightly warmed.
