MEXICAN CHOPPED SALAD



Mexican Chopped Salad image

This Mexican chopped salad is bursting with flavors and textures. Add some protein to it for a complete meal or enjoy it as a side along with lunch or dinner!

Provided by Jennifer Farley

Categories     Salad     Side Dish

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 ears corn
5 cups lettuce, (shredded)
1 cup cooked black beans ((rinsed and drained if using canned))
1/2 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, (halved)
2 tablespoons red onions or shallots, (finely diced)
1 ripe avocado, (diced)
1/4 cup cilantro, (chopped)
1/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons cilantro
1 scallion, (chopped)
2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lime juice
1/2 - 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons honey

Steps:

  • Microwave the corn for two minutes. This will cook the corn just enough for the salad, and also make it super easy to shuck. Let the corn cool briefly after removing from the microwave, then shuck, discarding the leaves and silk. Slice the corn off the cob.
  • Add the corn, lettuce, black beans, tomatoes, red onions, avocado, and cilantro to a large bowl.
  • Prepare the dressing: Add the sour cream, cilantro, scallion, lime juice, crushed red pepper, olive oil, salt and honey to a blender. Puree until smooth and creamy.
  • Toss the salad ingredients with as much dressing as you like. Serve immediately.

  • GRILL YOUR CORN: Use a broiler or a griddle pan to grill corn. Heat a lug of olive oil over medium-high heat and grill the whole corn cob for 15 minutes, lid closed, turning every 5 minutes, until the cob has black burn marks here and there and the kernels are soft (you can check it by piercing the cob with a fork). Let it cool a bit and remove the kernels with a knife.
  • CHOP THE VEGGIES: While your corn is grilling, chop the veggies. Dice red and green bell pepper, red and yellow tomatoes, red onion, scallions and avocado and arrange in four bowls or plates, creating sections (or just toss it all together if you prefer). Add already boiled (or canned and rinsed) black beans and the broiled corn kernels.
  • MAKE THE DRESSING: Pit and peel avocado, add water, olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper and process with a food processor or an immersion blender until smooth. Pour the dressing over the salad. Enjoy!
