Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 5 done
  1. Step 1

    Preheat the grill to medium high. Toss the corn, zucchini and bell pepper with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. Step 2

    Grill the corn for 10-15 minutes, turning every 3 minutes or until well charred on each side. Grill the bell pepper skin side down for 6-10 minutes or until skin is blackened. Grill the zucchini for 3-4 minutes per side or until tender and well charred. Remove from heat.

  3. Step 3

    When cool enough to handle, place the corn on a cutting board one ear at a time on its side. Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels from the top down on one side, then turn and continue until all of the kernels have been removed. Place the corn in a large bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the blackened skin from the bell pepper and chop coarsely, then chop the zucchini and add to the bowl with the corn.

  5. Step 5

    Add the cherry tomatoes, green onion and basil to the bowl, along with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, lime juice, basil leaves, salt and pepper, to taste. Stir gently to combine and let stand 5-10 minutes so that the flavors can meld. Serve at room temperature or make in advance and serve cold. Enjoy!
