Roasted Corn Salsa, With Tomatoes

Adapted from Minimalist Baker
Prep Time 20 mins
Cook Time 20 mins
Total Time 40 mins
Servings 3 -4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ears of corn shucked and silks removed
  • Olive oil
  • 1/4 of a red onion finely diced
  • 2 medium tomatoes seeded and diced
  • 1 jalapeƱo seeded and diced (I leave a few seeds to give the salsa a little heat)
  • Handful of cilantro finely chopped
  • Juice of 1-2 limes
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place corn on a rimmed baking sheet that is lined with tin foil (for easier cleanup). Drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Broil in the oven 15-20 minutes, or until corn kernels begin to char. Check every few minutes and use a set of tongs to turn the ears of corn as needed. Remove from the oven and let cool. Use a knife to carefully cut the kernels away from the cob. I like to stand each ear up on its end in a large bowl, I hold onto the top of the ear of corn, and use a knife to slice the kernels away - that way my fingers are safe and the kernels fall into the bowl, rather than fly all over the counter.
  • Combine the rest of the ingredients and let rest for 30 minutes or so in the fridge for the flavors to combine.
