Ingredients
3 cups Fresh corn kernels (about 3 cups)
6 Radishes, thinly sliced
½ Jalapeño pepper, seeded, ribs removed, and finely chopped
3 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
1½ tablespoons Olive oil
3 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Cook the corn kernels in a pot of boiling water for about 8–10 minutes, or until tender. Drain and let cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooled corn, sliced radishes, chopped jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, and olive oil.
Toss all ingredients together until well combined and evenly coated with the lime-oil dressing.
Season with salt and pepper to your taste, adjusting as needed.
Serve immediately while the salad is chilled, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Comments
Every ingredient is a Charlotte staple—corn, radishes, jalapeños, and limes are at every major chain year-round, and at lowest cost in late summer when North Carolina corn peaks. The cost per serving is genuinely cheap, probably under $1, driven entirely by produce with no specialty items. The stated 45 minutes is almost certainly a lie for a raw salad that needs only cutting and whisking; realistically this takes 10–15 minutes. It's a perfect side for a family weeknight, requires no heat or attention, and reheats fine the next day, though it's best the same night when the corn is still crisp.
