Description
A vibrant summer salad featuring sweet peaches, charred corn, and a tangy honey lime dressing. Perfect as a side dish or light lunch.
Ingredients
- 4 ears fresh corn, husked
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional)
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the corn ears, turning occasionally, until charred on all sides (about 10 minutes). Let cool slightly, then cut kernels off the cob.
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
- In a large bowl, combine grilled corn, peach slices, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, basil, mint, and sliced almonds (if using).
- Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately or chill for 15 minutes for a cooler salad.
Notes
You can customize the seasonings to taste. For extra tang, add a pinch of lime zest. Almonds can be toasted for more flavor. This salad is best served the day it is made.
