Grilled Corn Cobb Salad

 

                  

 

Ingredients

 

6 ears of fresh corn
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 large Bermuda onion, diced
2 bunches arugula, torn into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons fresh basil
2 tablespoons fresh oregano
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fresh basil sprigs for garnish

 

 






Preparation


Gently pull back the husks from each ear of corn, keeping the husks attached at the base. Remove the silk and pull the husk back over the corn. Use a strip of the husk to tie the ends closed. Soak the corn in cold water for about 20 minutes. Prepare a charcoal fire or heat up a gas grill. Lightly oil the grate.

Remove the corn from the water and grill for about 10-15 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Cut the corn kernels off the cob.

In a large bowl combine the corn, tomatoes, onion, basil, arugula and oregano. In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil and vinegar. Toss gently with corn mixture and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with fresh basil sprigs.
