Avocado, Toasted Corn and Chipotle Salsa
11 ingredients
openrecipes
Toasting sweet corn in a hot pan lends a nuttiness to offset its natural sweetness. Here it is combined with tart tomatoes, buttery avocados and a trio of Mexican flavorings—musky cumin, spicy-smoky chipotle chiles and bright cilantro—for a fresh, colorful partner for crisp tortilla chips.
