Method
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked corn, rinsed and drained black beans, diced tomato, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped jalapeño.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Allow the salad to stand for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld. Toss again before serving.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve cold.
Chef's Notes
- For best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- This salad is a great make-ahead dish, but add the dressing just before serving to prevent it from becoming soggy.
- You can grill the corn before cutting it off the cob for a smoky flavor.
