Time 52m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 large ears corn, husked
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
Salt and freshly ground pepper
8 vine-ripened tomatoes, about 1 pound total
1 cup diced red onion, 1/4-inch dice
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar, or more to taste
1/2 cup julienne fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Brush the corn liberally with olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. Grill, turning every few minutes, until light gold all over and cooked, about 12 minutes. Let cool and cut off the kernels. Discard the cobs.
  • Core the tomatoes and cut a small X on the bottom of each. Brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and place on the grill, X side down, away from direct heat. Cover the grill and cook until the tomatoes begin to soften but are not cooked all the way through (or they will melt through the grate!), about 15 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then peel. Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise and squeeze out the juice and the seeds through a sieve into a bowl. Reserve the juices and chop the flesh.
  • Put the onions in the non-reactive medium bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the vinegar. Let marinate until the color changes, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes, reserved tomato juice, onions, basil, and 1/3 cup olive oil to the corn. Toss well. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt, pepper, and remaining vinegar. The salsa is best eaten the same day but will keep, covered and refrigerated, a day or so.
  • Serve with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from this recipe. It still turned out great!

This salsa is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I love it on tacos, burritos, and even just as a dip with chips.

I love this salsa! The grilled corn adds a really unique flavor. I've also tried it with roasted corn, and that's delicious too.

I'm allergic to corn, so I substituted grilled zucchini in this recipe. It turned out great!

This salsa is delicious, but it's a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less jalapeño.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salsa turned out too watery. I think I might have chopped the tomatoes too finely.

This grilled corn salsa was a hit at my last party! The flavors were so fresh and summery, and the grilled corn added a nice smoky flavor. I'll definitely be making this again.
