Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Yield Makes 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 jalapeno pepper
1 red bell pepper
4 fresh ears of corn, shucked
1/4 cup lime juice (about 2 limes)
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves coarsely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium hot. Place peppers on grill, and cook, turning, until skin is black all over, 5 to 10 minutes for jalapeno and 10 to 15 minutes for red pepper. Place grilled peppers in a brown paper bag; let stand about 10 minutes. Remove peppers from bag, and peel away and discard charred skin; rinse your fingers from time to time under cool running water, if necessary, but do not rinse the peppers. Remove and discard stems and seeds. Mince jalapeno, and transfer to a large bowl. Cut red pepper into 1/4-inch pieces, add to jalapeno, and set aside.
  • Place ears of corn directly on grill. Cook until brown and tender, turning often, about 10 minutes. Remove from grill, and let cool slightly. Use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob; add to peppers.
  • Add lime juice, black beans, parsley, red onion, garlic, olive oil, and cayenne to corn and pepper mixture, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh, ripe corn and beans for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh corn, frozen corn kernels will also work.
  • Grill the corn: Grilling the corn adds a smoky flavor that really enhances the salsa. If you don't have a grill, you can also roast the corn in the oven.
  • Use a variety of beans: Black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans are all great options for this salsa. You can also use a mix of different beans.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy salsa, add a chopped jalapeño pepper or two. You can also add some cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the corn: The corn should be slightly charred but still tender. If you overcook it, it will become tough and chewy.
  • Serve the salsa immediately: This salsa is best served fresh. If you have leftovers, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This grilled corn and bean salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make summer appetizer or side dish. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, or backyard barbecues. The salsa is also a great way to use up leftover grilled corn. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy recipe, give this grilled corn and bean salsa a try. You won't be disappointed!
