Steps:
- Remove corn from cob using a sharp knife. You should have about 6 cups.

Be careful not to overcrowd skillet or corn will steam. If necessary, char corn in 2 batches. Add jalapeno, garlic, and cumin and cook 1 minute.

MEXICAN CORN-OFF-THE-COB SALAD
This salad was inspired by the recipes I've seen for grilled Mexican corn on the cob--mayo, lime, cotija cheese--just adjusted for those that would rather not eat corn on the cob or to save time (and grill space) during your bbq! Can be served cold or at room temp.
