Instructions
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once skillet is hot, add halloumi and sear on each side for 2 to 3 minutes, or until browned. Remove from heat and cube into bite sized pieces.
- Lower heat to medium heat and add butter. Allow butter to melt and toast until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add corn and toss together. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove from heat and stir in chives and cilantro.
- Fold in cubed halloumi. Finish with fresh lime zest, if using. Serve warm or room temperature.
Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions
- This dish can be made up to 3 days ahead of time. When ready to serve, you can either serve it straight from the refrigerator or slightly warm it up in a skillet, over, medium heat, for 3 to 4 minutes.
- If making this dish ahead of time, we recommend adding the herbs and lime zest to the dish the day you serve it for maximum freshness.
- Variations for Our Corn Salad
- We use fresh corn in our recipe, but you can definitely use canned corn that has been rinsed and drained, or you can use frozen corn that has been thawed. Both alternatives will give you delicious results!
- If you can't find halloumi, you can use another salty, dry cheese like cotija or ricotta salata. Instead of pan searing and chopping either alternatives, just crumble and fold either cheese into the corn mixture.
- Sliced green onions can be used instead of chives.
