Charred Corn & Black Bean Caviar

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.

Method
 

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
