GRILLED CORN AND BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• For the salad: Preheat a grill on high for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium high and grill the corn, with the cover closed and turning occasionally, until some kernels are black, about 12 minutes. Remove and allow the corn to cool slightly.
• Using a sharp knife, cut off the kernels into a very large, deep serving bowl. (Hold the narrow end of the cob, point the other end into the bowl and cut downward, so that flying kernels are trapped by the bowl itself.) Add the black beans, chickpeas, cilantro, green and red bell peppers, onions, chile peppers, salt and pepper to taste to the bowl and toss.
• For the dressing: Whisk together the lime juice, sugar, salt, vinegar, cumin, chili powder, garlic and olive oil in a small bowl. Season to taste with hot sauce.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to thoroughly coat. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, toss again and serve. The salad can be made a day in advance, covered and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.

ROASTED CORN & BLACK BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Pre-heat oven to 425 deg.
• 2. Place the cleaned and shucked corn on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes. For the last couple of minutes switch to broil. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• 3. While the corn is roasting dice the peppers and chop the green onions and cilantro and set aside.
• 4. When cooled remove the kernels from the cob. I take a small bowl, set in upside down in a large bowl, stand the ears of corn on the small bowl and cut the kernels off.
• 5. Combine the corn with the peppers, onion, beans and cilantro in the large bowl. (If you are going to serve this right away, fold in the cheese. If you're going to serve the dish later on or the next day, wait to add the cheese just before you add the dressing.)
• 6. In a small bowl combine all of the dressing ingredients. When ready fold the dressing into the salad until thoroughly combined.
• 7. Garnish with the cheese and cilantro leaves and serve.
