Preparation

Step 1

Husk the corn, cut or break the cobs into two pieces, and steam the corn in about an inch of vigorously boiling water, in a large covered pot, for 5 minutes, less or more time depending on the tenderness of the corn. (Or you can microwave or grill the corn; use your favorite method for cooking corn.)

When the corn has cooled to the touch, cut the kernels away from the cobs.

Place the corn kernels and the rest of the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Toss to combine.

Serve with fish tacos, chicken tacos, quesadillas, fajitas, or steak.

Makes 2 cups.
