How to Make Mango And Bean Salad
- Marinate: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion with 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1 tablespoon lime zest. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for a stronger flavor).
- Caramelize Corn: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 cups of corn kernels (fresh or frozen) and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
- Cook Corn: Sauté the corn, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly caramelized (about 5-7 minutes).
- Cool Corn: Remove the pan from the heat and let the corn cool completely.
- Combine Salad: In a large bowl, combine the marinated red onions, cooled corn, 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 2 ripe mangoes (diced), 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper.
- Dress & Serve: Gently toss the salad. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lime juice before serving.
