Yield Makes 4 (main course) or 6 (side dish) servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup grated parmesan
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chiles in adobo
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 ears of corn, shucked
2 firm-ripe 6-to 8-ounces avocados, halved and pitted but not peeled
1 head romaine (1 pound), tough outer leaves discarded and head quartered lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1-inch strips

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over hot charcoal (high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure .
  • Put parmesan in a medium bowl and add olive oil in a slow stream, whisking. Whisk in lime juice, garlic, chipotles, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
  • Rub vegetable oil on corn and cut sides of avocados, then season with 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Grill avocados, cut sides down, and corn, covered only if using a gas grill, turning corn occasionally, until golden-brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Peel avocados and thinly slice. Cut corn kernels from cobs.
  • Toss romaine with dressing and serve topped with avocado and corn.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. The grilled avocado didn't add much flavor, and the chipotle caesar dressing was not very flavorful.

The grilled avocado was a bit too smoky for my taste, but the rest of the salad was very good. The chipotle caesar dressing was especially tasty.

This salad was a hit! The grilled avocado was especially delicious and added a lovely smoky flavor. The chipotle caesar dressing was also very tasty and had just the right amount of spice. I would definitely make this again.
