GRILLED CORN AND TOMATO SALSA SALAD



Grilled Corn and Tomato Salsa Salad image

At our farmers' market we picked up a dozen ears of corn for a weekend barbecue. With several ears left over, I repurposed the corn as the starting point for two salads. One emphasized cherry tomatoes, the other Italian parsley, both in plentiful supply at the farmers' market.

Provided by David Latt

Categories     brunch, dinner, lunch, quick, salads and dressings

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
Olive oil, to taste
2 ears of corn, shucked, silks removed
Sea salt and pepper
1 basket cherry tomatoes stems removed, quartered
1 scallion, ends trimmed, green and white parts finely chopped
1/4 cup Italian parsley leaves roughly chopped
1/4 cup red onion peeled, finely chopped
1 medium-sized avocado, pitted, peeled, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Start up grill, if using charcoal, or wait until corn is ready if using a gas grill. Or preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small saucepan over a very low flame, reduce balsamic vinegar to 1 tablespoon, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
  • Drizzle olive oil on corn and season with sea salt and pepper. Place on grill and cook until lightly browned. (Or roast in oven for 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes.) Remove, let cool and cut off kernels.
  • Mix corn, tomatoes, scallion, parsley, red onion, and avocado. Season with reduced balsamic, olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Toss well.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm tomatoes for stuffing. Roma or plum tomatoes work well, as they have a sturdy shape and a relatively small seed cavity.
  • Use fresh corn for the salad. You can grill the corn yourself, or purchase pre-grilled corn from the supermarket.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can roast the corn in the oven. Simply toss the corn with a little oil and salt, then roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until the corn is tender and slightly charred.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as chopped cucumber, bell pepper, or onion.
  • To make the salad more flavorful, use a flavorful dressing, such as a vinaigrette or a creamy dressing made with mayonnaise or Greek yogurt.
  • Garnish the stuffed tomatoes with fresh herbs, such as basil, cilantro, or parsley.

Conclusion:

Tomato stuffed with Grilled Corn salad is a delicious and refreshing summer dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The grilled corn adds a smoky flavor to the salad, while the tomatoes and herbs provide freshness and acidity. This dish is also very versatile, as you can add other vegetables to the salad, or use a different type of dressing.
