Angela's Grilled Corn and Bean Salad Directions
Get ready
Assemble ingredients and equipment.
Sear the frozen corn
In a (12-inch) skillet over High heat, spread the frozen corn (not defrosted) and sear it. Stir occasionally, until most of the corn kernels have browned a little on at least one side. The corn is ready when some of the kernels start "popping".
Remove the corn from the pan to a large bowl, and repeat with any remaining frozen corn kernels.
Assemble base
To the large bowl of seared corn, add the remaining Salad ingredients (black beans though ground black pepper. Toss well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Prepare Dressing
In a two cup measuring glass or a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, lime juice, sugar, garlic, cumin, Kosher salt, chili powder, and olive oil. Season to taste with the hot sauce.
Mix and marinate salad
Pour the Dressing over the grilled corn mixture and toss well to thoroughly coat.
Let sit at room temperature for twenty (20) minutes. Then, toss again and serve.

Angela's Grilled Corn and Bean Salad Notes
- I prefer ease of searing frozen corn in a dry skillet over grilling corn cobs and then, removing kernels.
- You can prepare this salad a day in advance; cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.
