This is a great side dish to any summer time dinner. You can make it ahead and it is even better the next day in my opinion. Ingredients:
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained |
1 cob corn, shucked |
1 large handful fresh cilantro, finely chopped |
1 green onions, finely sliced |
3 inches of english cucumber, cut in quarters lengthwise then thinly sliced |
1 lemon or lime, juiced |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. In a pot of boiling salted water cook the corn for 3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water until cool. Run a sharp knife along the side of the corn to take off the kernels.
2. Toss the corn kernels, cucumber, beans, cilantro and green onions in a salad bowl. Add the citrus juice chili powder and a healthy amount of freshly ground pepper and salt. Taste and adjust accordingly.
