Description

This Grilled Corn Salad combines the sweetness of grilled corn, juicy tomatoes, and vibrant herbs, making it a delightful addition to any meal. It’s easy to prepare and packed with fresh flavors, perfect for a quick dinner or a healthy side dish at summer gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ears of corn, shucked and silks removed
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 english cucumber, sliced and quartered
  • ½ medium red onion, diced
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh herbs
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • optional: crumbled feta

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the corn with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  2. Grill the corn for 8 to 10 minutes, rotating occasionally for even charring, then remove from the grill and let cool.
  3. Once cool, shave the kernels off the corn using a large knife.
  4. In a bowl, combine the corn kernels, quartered tomatoes, cucumber, diced red onion, and herbs. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine.
  5. Optionally, top with crumbled feta before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, add your favorite grilled vegetables.
This salad can be made a few hours in advance; just mix in the feta right before serving.
Feel free to customize with whatever fresh herbs you have on hand.
