Categories     salads     side dishes

Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 cactus paddles (nopales) (trimmed)
2 limes (juiced)
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt (divided)
1/2 tsp black pepper (divided)
1/4 tsp ground cumin
2 small serrano chiles (minced)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
4 Roma tomatoes (cut into chunks)
1 cup red onion (thinly sliced (1/2 medium onion))
1 avocado (pitted and cubed)
1/3 cup cilantro (chopped)
1/4 cup cotija cheese (crumbled)

Steps:

  • Typically cactus paddles are sold with the thorns removed. If not, use a small paring knife or vegetable peeler to remove and discard thorns and any blemishes on cactus. Wash and use paper towels to pat the cactus paddles dry. Rub both sides with vegetable oil and sprinkle 1/4 tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of pepper over all. Set aside on platter while grill is heated to 400°F.
  • In a salad bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, remaining salt and pepper and cumin. Add the minced chiles and garlic. Allow to rest while grilling the cactus.
  • Transfer cactus paddles to the hot grill. Cook each side for 4 minutes or until grill marks are visible. Remove from heat and allow to cool while you assemble the remaining salad ingredients.
  • Add the tomatoes, red onion, avocado and cilantro to the marinated chile dressing. Toss to coat.
  • Slice each cactus in half lengthwise. Stack both pieces and slice into 1/2 inch strips. Repeat with remaining paddles. Add to the salad and toss to mix. Serve immediately or chill for an hour.
  • Sprinkle the cotija cheese on top before plating. Serve as a starter salad, with tortilla chips as an appetizer or with grilled grilled meats.

  • Clean and prepare the cactus paddles. Cut each paddle into strips, leaving the base intact, then brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Shuck and clean the corn.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high, then lay the cactus paddles and shucked corn on the grill directly over the heat and cook until the cactus paddles are soft and slightly charred and the corn is charred on all sides, turning both throughout grilling so they char evenly. The cactus paddles should take about 5 minutes on each side, and the corn should take about 10 minutes total as well. Remove the cactus paddles and corn from the grill and let them cool enough to handle, then chop the cactus paddles into bite-size pieces and carefully cut the corn kernels off the cob.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped, grilled cactus, grilled corn, chopped onion, garlic, and lime juice, and toss. Season with salt and pepper, then garnish with the chopped cilantro and queso fresco, tossing again before serving.
