A colorful, cool, crunchy, spicy side that’s great for a barbecue. Other than some chopping, this is almost effortless and can be made well in advance.

  • Kernels cut from 6 ears of fresh sweet corn
  • 1 large red bell pepper, diced
  • 1-2 jalapeno peppers, minced
  • ½ of a medium red onion, diced
  • 5 scallions, sliced thin (white and green parts)
  • 1 medium zucchini, diced
  • 1 large rib of celery, diced
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • ½ tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1 to 1 ½ tbsp. honey
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • ½ tsp. fresh ground pepper
  • ½ tsp. chili powder
  • ½ tsp. ground coriander
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped parsley
  • 4 tbsp. olive oil

Instructions #

Mix the lime juice, rice vinegar, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, chili powder, coriander and parsley in a large bowl.
