Source:  Meals Matter

Ingredients

1 tbs Olive oil
4 Ears corn, shaved
1 To 2 jalapeno chilies, seeded and diced
  Salt
2 tsp Champagne vinegar
4 tsp Fresh lime juice
  Cayenne pepper
1 Scallion, white and green parts thinly sliced
2 tbs Chopped Cilantro, fresh
1 cup Cherry tomatoes cut in half


Preparation

Heat olive oil in a wide skillet; add the corn, jalapenos, and 1/4 tsp salt. Saute over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, until the corn is tender. Transfer to a bowl and toss the warm corn with the vinegar, lime juice, 1/4 tsp salt, and a few pinches of cayenne. When the corn is cool, add the sliced scallion and cilantro.

Cook's Notes

For a spicier salad, add more cayenne or another chili. A great way to make use of summer corn.
