• To prepare the salad, place the ears of corn on a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil, massaging to coat.
• Heat a medium (10-inch) skillet over medium-high. When hot, add the corn and allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, so they char.

When the pan has cooled, wipe it out.

Transfer to the bowl with the corn.
