Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you don't have a grill, you can also use a grill pan on your stovetop.
  2. Husk the corn and remove all silk. Lightly coat the ears of corn with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  3. Grill the corn for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the corn is nicely charred and tender. Remove from the grill and let it cool.
  4. Once the corn is cooled, carefully cut the kernels off the cob using a sharp knife. Place the kernels in a large mixing bowl.
  5. Add the halved cherry tomatoes, chopped red onion, and cilantro to the bowl with the corn.
  6. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
  7. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to combine.
  8. Finally, cube the avocados and add them to the salad, being careful not to mash them. Toss delicately just before serving.
