Prep Time5 minsCook Time10 minsTotal Time15 mins
 1 ear corn, shucked
 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for rubbing the corn
 1 cup cherry tomatoes - quartered
 2 ripe but firm avocadoes, pitted and diced
 1 - 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
 ½ medium red onion, diced
 1 tsp agave syrup
 ½ tsp ground cumin
 ¼ tsp minced garlic
 Juice of 1 to 2 limes
 1 serrano chile, seeded and finely diced
 Pinch cayenne pepper
 Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
 3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
 3 scallions, finely chopped
1

Preheat the grill over medium-high heat.

2

Rub the shucked corn with olive oil and place onto the grill and cook until nicely charred on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Allow to cool slightly prior to removing the kernels and transferring to a large bowl.

3

Add the cherry tomatoes, avocados, black beans and onions to the grilled corn kernels.

4

Mix together the 2 tablespoons olive oil, agave, cumin, garlic, lime juice, serrano, cayenne, and salt and black pepper to taste in a separate bowl. Whisk together, as you would to make a vinaigrette, and pour over the corn mixture. Mix together gently so everything is coated well, and then fold in the cilantro and scallions.
