Grilled Corn and Poblano Salsa

Grilled Corn and Poblano Salsa

I made a very similar grilled corn and poblano salsa recipe over the summer when my daughter was home from college and have been craving it again ever since.

This salsa would seriously be good on just about anything.

Just with chips, on tacos, served over grilled chicken or fish, or in a taco bowl with regular or cauliflower rice would be amazing.

Note to self…make the taco cauliflower rice bowl soon đŸ˜‰ .

It’s so unique compared to other salsas that I’ve made, plus it’s super easy.

How to Make Grilled Corn and Poblano Salsa

Season corn, thick slices of red onion, a poblano, jalapeno and red bell pepper with olive oil, kosher salt, and pepper.

Grill over medium heat, right around 450 degrees for about 15 minutes, turning halfway through.

The vegetables should be perfectly cooked, slightly charred, and full of smoky flavor from the grill đŸ™‚

Once they are cooled slightly, cut the kernels off of the corn, dice the red onions, and the peppers.

Remove the stem and seeds from the peppers first.

Combine this beautiful, colorful mixture in a bowl and add sugar, the juice of a lime, fresh cilantro, kosher salt, and pepper.

Stir until evenly mixed and taste for seasoning, adding more kosher salt and pepper if needed.

I probably reseasoned mine 3 times before getting it just right.
