Corn salsa is a healthy, vegetarian condiment. Sweet and mildly spicy in flavor, corn salsa is extremely versatile and can be served as a dip, salad or topping.
Dos Bros is a locally owned restaurant here that makes a great corn salsa. If you go to their website they list the ingredients in the salsa, but not the amounts. In researching for the recipe I found the copycat recipe for Chipotle's corn salsa.
So I tweaked the recipe and came up with this version. My daughter loves it and says it would go well on anything and she would like to have it in the refrigerator all the time.
Here is the recipe if you're interested:
Dos Bros Corn Salsa
Ingredients:
4 cups White Sweet Corn
2 Poblano Peppers
1 tablespoon fresh Lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh Lime juice
½ cup fresh cilantro
½ cup red onion, diced
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
Directions:
Place an oven rack at the upper top position and preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Place poblano peppers on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the peppers are totally blistered and browned, about 15 to 20 minutes. Turn peppers every 5 minutes to roast all sides. Transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 5 minutes. Peel the poblanos with your fingers. Careful the peppers are still hot. Cut them in half and remove seeds. Chop poblanos and place in a medium bowl with the remaining ingredients. Toss to combine. Serve and enjoy.
You can substitute 1 (4-ounce) can fire roasted diced green chilies for the poblanos.
