How to Make Avocado Corn Salsa

  1. Combine the corn, red onion, bell pepper, cilantro, and jalapeno in a large bowl. Gently toss to combine.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Gently fold in 4-5 ripe avocados (about 2 cups diced) into the vegetable mixture. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Pour the dressing over the avocado and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
