Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes
Total time: 25 minutes
Servings: 6-8
Ingredients:
6 ears Sweet corn, husked (or 3 cups frozen sweet corn, thawed, or 2 cans sweet corn, drained)
1-1/2 pounds Tomatoes, diced
3/4 cup Red onion, chopped
1/2 cup fresh Cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin Olive oil
1 Tablespoon Red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Slice kernels off ears of corn, and boil kernels for 5 minutes. Drain kernels and cool to room temperature. (Mary Beth mentions that the kernels can be micro-waved instead of boiled. Or cook the corn right on the cob, allow to cool, and then slice the kernels off.)
2. In a large bowl, combine corn, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, oil, and vinegar. Toss lightly to mix.
3. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Cover and chill for one hour to overnight.
