Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large poblano pepper (or anaheim pepper)
  • 1 12-ounce bag frozen corn (defrosted and drained, or 12 ounces fresh corn removed from cob)
  • 1 medium shallot (diced)
  • 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Slice the poblano pepper in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides. Toss the pepper halves with olive oil and a pinch of salt on a baking sheet, skin side up.
  3. Roast the pepper halves in the oven for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove the roasted peppers from the oven and transfer them to a plastic bag or cover them with plastic wrap to steam for easier peeling.
  5. Once cooled, peel the skins off the peppers, discard them, and dice the peppers.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the diced peppers with frozen corn, shallot, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt.

Notes

Serve with tortilla chips for a delicious appetizer.
Salsa can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño according to your spice preference.
