This summer salad with grilled corn is fresh, colorful, and packed with sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumber, and zesty lime dressing.
4 ears fresh corn on the cob
1½ cups (225g) cherry tomatoes, halved
1 medium cucumber, diced
1/4 cup (40g) red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup (15g) fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp maple syrup
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Husk the corn and remove all silk strands.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Place the corn directly on the grill and cook for about 3–4 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until lightly charred with grill marks.
While the corn cooks, halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber, finely chop the red onion, and chop the cilantro.
Allow the grilled corn to cool slightly, then stand each cob upright on a cutting board and carefully slice downward to remove the kernels.
In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper.
Add the grilled corn kernels, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and cilantro to the bowl.
Toss gently until everything is evenly coated in the dressing.
Serve immediately or chill before serving for extra freshness.
Fresh corn delivers the best smoky flavor and texture.
Add avocado or feta cheese for extra richness.
This salad pairs perfectly with grilled meats, tacos, or seafood.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
