Ingredients

  • 2 cobs corn
  • 2 sweet green peppers
  • 1 cup cooked black beans
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh coriander
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin

Preparation

Trim loose silks from corn; soak husks in water for 10 minutes. Place corn and green peppers on grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning occasionally, until tender and charred, about 10 minutes. Let cool.

Peel husks and silks from corn; remove kernels from cob. Transfer to large bowl. Remove charred skins from peppers; chop and add to corn.

Add black beans, coriander, onion, jalapeño pepper, lime juice, oil, salt and cumin; toss well to combine. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 24 hours.)

Makes about 4 cups (1 L), or 6 to 8 servings.

Additional information : Tip: To save time soaking and cooking beans, you can substitute 1 can (19 oz/540 mL) black beans, drained and rinsed. Reduce salt to 1/4 tsp (1 mL).
