  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ears of corn (about 3 1/24 cups), cut from the cob
  • 1 red bell pepper, cored and diced finely
  • 1/2 red onion, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeño, finely diced, seeds removed
  • 2 limes, juice of
  • 1/4 teaspoon – 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • pinch of salt, *optional

Instructions

  1. Soak: add the diced onion to a bowl of cold water for ~10 minutes. Drain well. *this step is optional, but is how I add raw onion to dishes to have less ‘bite’.
  2. Assemble: in a large mixing bowl, combine the corn, bell pepper, onion, jalapeño, lime juice, and spices, and mix well to ‘combine’.
  3. Marinate: let the salsa sit and ‘marinate’ in the lime juice for at least 15-20 minutes prior to serving.
  4. Serve and enjoy! Keep leftovers for 3-4 days in the fridge. To keep longer, freeze portions in a freezer safe container.
