Corn Salsa

Are you ready for Cinco de Mayo?

I sure am...Bring on the margaritas!

And sombreros.



Here's a quick salsa perfect it you need to throw something together last minute. You shouldn't be drinking all that tequila on an empty stomach anyway :)







WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
  • 1 12oz bag of frozen corn, defrosted and drained
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 medium-sized jalapeños, seeds removed and diced *
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 3/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 limes 
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

**You can can also use fresh corn. Either cut it directly off the cob or roast it on the grill then cut it off**

**If you want an extra spicy salsa keep some of the seeds from the jalapeños**





Chop your red onion, jalapeños, and cilantro.




Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the corn.




Saute the corn until it starts to turn brown.




Mix the corn, onion, jalapeños, and cilantro in a mixing bowl. Squeeze in the juice of the 2 limes and season with salt and pepper.




Serve with tortilla chips!






Have a happy Cinco De Mayo weekend!!
