Charred Corn & Black Bean Caviar
This is the bowl that makes a bag of tortilla chips disappear before anyone has found a plate. Charred corn, juicy tomatoes, black beans and cilantro get a bright Chili Lime lift, then a silky olive-oil-and-balsamic finish that tastes like a summer cookout decided to dress up.
Ingredients
Method
- Whisk the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Chili Lime Gourmet Garlic and lime juice in the bottom of a large bowl. Let it sit for a minute so the seasoning starts to bloom.
- Fold in the beans, charred corn, tomatoes, red onion and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper, then toss gently enough to keep the tomatoes bright and the beans intact.
- Chill for 30 minutes if you have the patience. Spoon into a wide bowl and serve with tortilla chips, grilled chicken, tacos or a cold drink on the patio.
Notes
Time: 15 min + chill
Kitchen tip: Make it a meal: pile leftovers over grilled fish or spoon them into lettuce cups with avocado.
