GRILLED CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat; lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the corn on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and specks of black appear, about 10 minutes; set aside until just cool enough to handle. Slice the kernels off of the cob and place into a bowl.
• Combine the warm corn kernels with the green pepper, diced tomato, onion, cilantro, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; toss until evenly mixed. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend before serving.

GRILLED CORN AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Boil the corn in salted water for 10 minutes. Drain the corn then brush with olive oil.
• Grill the corn until charred and golden brown all over. Remove from the grill and set aside to cool while you prepare the rest of the salad.
• Cut the avocado into chunks, slice the tomatoes and roughly chop the herbs. Place into a large bowl.
• Lie the corn on its side and with a sharp knife slice the kernels off the cob. Place into the bowl with the rest of the salad.
• Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Pour over the salad, gently toss and serve.

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.

GRILLED MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat. Oil the grates well.
• Put the corn, scallions, jalapenos and bell pepper directly on the grates. Grill, turning, until charred on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes for the scallions, 5 to 8 minutes for the peppers and 8 to 10 minutes for the corn; set aside to cool.
• In a medium bowl, add the sour cream, mayo, chipotle chili powder, lime zest and juice and garlic and mix to combine.
• Slice the corn kernels from the cobs. Remove the ribs and seeds from the red pepper and cut into small dice. Chop the scallions and dice the jalapenos (seeds and ribs removed to taste). Put the corn, red pepper, jalapenos, scallions and beans in the bowl with the dressing and mix to combine while the veggies are still slightly warm. Sprinkle the Pecorino-Romano over the salad. Season with salt and pepper and add a dash of hot sauce if desired. Top with the cilantro and crispy bacon and serve immediately slightly warm, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

GRILLED STEAK WITH GREEK CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, herbs, honey, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette to a large bowl; set aside. Add the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, feta and olives to the bowl with the remaining vinaigrette; toss to coat.
• Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, about 8 minutes; remove to a cutting board. Meanwhile, season the steaks with salt and pepper. Working in batches if necessary, grill the steaks until the edges start browning, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 30 seconds. Transfer to the bowl with the reserved vinaigrette; toss to coat.
• Cut off the corn kernels and add to the salad. Serve the steak with the corn salad.

Steps:

• For the corn: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Brush the corn with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked and browned, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the salad: Add the tomatoes, onions, pepper and jalapeno to a bowl. Pour over the olive oil and lime juice, sprinkle with a pinch salt and pepper and toss.

GRILLED CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Grill the corn, bell pepper, and zucchini: Prepare your grill for high, direct heat. Oil the grill grates. Rub a little olive oil over the bell pepper. Place the red pepper and the corn (in their husks) directly on the grill grates. (See our method for grilling corn-on-the-cob .) Cover the grill. Turn corn occasionally, so that every part of the husk is blackened. Also turn the red bell pepper occasionally until the skin has blistered up all around it. This should take 15 to 20 minutes. When the corn and peppers are about 5 minutes away from being done, rub olive oil over the zucchini pieces and place the zucchini pieces directly on the grill grate, cut side down. Turn them over after a few minutes when they have some nice grill marks on them. Let them cook for just a minute or two on the other side.
• Finish prepping the red pepper: Place charred bell pepper in a bowl and cover with a plate so that it steams in its own heat. Once the bell pepper has cooled a bit, remove the charred peel. Cut open the pepper, remove the seeds and stem. Chop the bell pepper into small pieces.
• Cut the kernels from the corn cob: Let the corn cool down for a few minutes and pull back the husks. Take a small bowl and turn it upside down in a larger bowl. Stand the corn husks vertically, tip facing down, on top of the upside down small bowl. (You can also use the center of an upturned bundt pan.) Use a sharp knife to make long, downward strokes, removing the kernels from the cob, as you work your way around the cob.
• Chop zucchini: Slice the grilled zucchini again lengthwise and chop into small pieces.

GRILLED CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat grill or broiler to medium heat.
• Rub corn with 2 tablespoons of canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill or broil corn for 7 minutes or until ears are lightly browned. Remove from grill and allow to cool. Remove the kernels form the cob and place in a large mixing bowl along with the cherry tomatoes, red pepper, scallions, and arugula.
• In a small bowl, prepare dressing by whisking together lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and Neelys Barbeque Seasoning, to taste.
• Toss the salad with the dressing and serve at room temperature.
• Add all ingredients to a bowl and stir until combined. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

FRESH CORN SALAD

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for 3 minutes until the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and to set the color. When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob.
• Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Just before serving, toss in the fresh basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.
