Step 1

Spray grill rack with nonstick nonflammable cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (350° to 400°). Grill corn for 5 minutes per side or until tender. Grill bell peppers and poblano pepper for 2 to 3 minutes per side until blackened slightly and tender. Set aside to cool. Cut kernels from corn cobs, and chop peppers.
