Avocado And Grilled Corn Salad With Cilantro Vinaigrette Food

GRILLED CORN AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Soak the corn in its husks in a bowl of heavily salted water overnight in the refrigerator. Keep the ears submerged below the surface of the water with a plate weighted down with a heavy can.
• Prepare and preheat your lump charcoal grill to medium low.
• Put the corn, still in its husks, on the grill, cover, and cook, turning occasionally, for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the garlic, jalapeño and a large pinch of salt. Add the lime zest, lime juice and olive oil and whisk to combine. Add the avocado, tomatoes, scallions and cilantro and toss gently to combine.
• Remove the corn from the grill. When cool enough to handle, peel back the husks, discard the silk and slice the kernels off the cobs with a knife. Add to the bowl of vegetables. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

• Add the cherry tomatoes, avocado, bell pepper, onion and cilantro to the corn and toss gently to combine. Set aside.
• For the dressing, combine the avocado oil, honey, hot sauce, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl, whisking to dissolve the honey and salt. Pour over the salad and toss gently to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve as a side dish or with chips.
