Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, or more to taste
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 cups fresh corn kernels
2 cucumbers, diced
3 vine-ripened tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
12 ounces shredded rotisserie chicken
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 red onion, diced
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
6 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Press chipotle chiles through a fine mesh strainer over a bowl, using a spoon or spatula. Discard the skin, veins, and seeds. Mix the pulp with mayonnaise, lime juice, and salt in a large bowl for the dressing.
  • Place corn in a pot with water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until heated through and tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and let cool, about 10 minutes.
  • Combine cucumbers, tomatoes, black beans, chicken, bell peppers, onion, and cilantro in the bowl with the dressing. Mix in the cooled corn. Top with Cheddar cheese.
