This is an easy and tasty salad. It is great for picnics or cook-outs. I received this from a friend at my bridal shower. The majority of the cook time is chilling time - the salad needs to chill and marinate for about 3-8 hours before serving. Fresh cracked black pepper works really well in this.
Ingredients:
6 large ears white corn, husked
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh basil, thinly sliced and divided
5 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Remove corn kernels from cob.
2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute 1 minute. Add corn and saute for an additional 5 minutes.
3. Add 1/4 c of basil and transfer mixture to a large bowl.
4. Cool slightly.
5. Stir in tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, and the remaining olive oil and basil.
6. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Chill for 3-8 hours before serving.
