Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 cloves garlic
Zest and juice of 2 limes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup canola oil
8 ounces okra
8 ears corn, husked
2 red bell peppers
1 poblano pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
4 Roma tomatoes, small-diced
1 red onion, small-diced
3 green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the cumin-lime vinaigrette: Add the rice vinegar, cumin, honey, mustard, garlic, lime zest and juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a blender. Blend on low speed, then raise the speed to high and blend until everything is pureed. While on high speed, slowly add the canola oil to emulsify. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • For the grilled street corn salad: Preheat the grill to medium-high. Ina bowl, toss the okra, corn, red peppers and poblano with the canola oil to coat, then place on the grill. Grill the corn and okra until lightly charred; set aside to cool. Grill the peppers until the skin is charred black; transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam (this helps remove the skin). Once the peppers are cool, peel off the skin, remove the seeds and cut into small dice; add to a bowl. Cut the kernels off the corn and add to the bowl. Slice the okra into 1/4-inch rounds; add to the bowl. Add the parsley, tomatoes and red onions, and toss. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • To serve, toss the corn salad and with vinaigrette. Garnish with the green onions.

GRILLED CORN AND AVOCADO SALAD WITH FETA DRESSING



Grilled Corn and Avocado Salad With Feta Dressing image

This lively salad of corn, scallions, jalapeño and avocado tossed with a tangy buttermilk-feta dressing is like summer on a plate. The sweetness of peak-summer corn and the richness of creamy avocado balance out the tartness of the dressing. To choose the perfect corn, make sure that the corn husk is bright green and slightly dewy to the touch, and that the silks peeking out at the top are yellow, not browned. Finally, the corn should be heavy for its size: the heavier the corn, the plumper the kernels.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ears corn (about 3 pounds), shucked and silk removed
1 bunch scallions (about 6), trimmed
1 jalapeño, stemmed and halved lengthwise
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, grated
1/4 cup sliced fresh chives
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1 medium head romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces (about 8 cups)
2 avocados, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high. Brush corn, scallions and jalapeño with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until corn kernels are browned in spots, 6 to 8 minutes, and the scallions and jalapeño are charred all over and tender, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a cutting board and let cool slightly.
  • In a medium bowl, using a whisk, mash the feta into a coarse paste. Whisk in buttermilk, lemon zest and juice and garlic, then stir in chives and parsley. Finely chop the charred jalapeño and stir it into the feta dressing; season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large bowl, toss lettuce with half the feta dressing and arrange on a platter. Cut corn kernels off the cob and slice scallions into bite-size pieces. Arrange avocado slices, corn and scallions on top of the lettuce. Serve with remaining dressing.
