Ingredients

  • 3 teaspoons butter
  • 3 ears fresh corn, husks and silks removed
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1
Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2
Spread 1 teaspoon butter on each ear of corn and sprinkle ears with garlic powder. Wrap corn in aluminum foil.

Step 3
Grill wrapped ears until corn kernels are hot and steaming, about 15 minutes. Unwrap ears and grill until kernels are lightly browned, about 5 more minutes, turning once. Let corn cool and cut kernels from the cobs.

Step 4
Gently stir corn, black beans, and cilantro together in a salad bowl. Whisk olive oil, red wine vinegar, lime juice, garlic, sugar, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper in a separate bowl; pour dressing over corn mixture and toss gently to coat.
