Grilled Corn Relish Part salsa, part salad, this Southwest-style relish partners well with grilled chicken or pork. For a light meal, roll it up in a tortilla with black beans and shredded cheese, then warm it on the grill.
3 tablespoons lime juice 1 tablespoon cooking oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 ears corn, husked and cleaned 1 teaspoon chili powder 1 small avocado, seeded, peeled, and cut up 1/2 cup chopped red sweet pepper 1/4 cup snipped fresh cilantro 1/4 teaspoon salt
In a medium bowl combine lime juice, oil, and garlic. Brush corn lightly with juice mixture. Sprinkle corn with chili powder.
Preheat gas grill.
Reduce heat to medium. Place corn on the grill rack directly over heat. Cover and grill for 25 to 30 minutes or until corn is tender, turning occasionally.
Meanwhile, add avocado, sweet pepper, cilantro, and salt to remaining limejuice mixture; toss well.
Cut corn kernels from cobs and add to avocado mixture; toss well. Serve with grilled meat, poultry, or seafood.
