Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest

  • 1/4 cup olive oil plus extra for grilling
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

  • 6 ears corn, husks removed

Directions

Whisk together lime juice, zest, honey and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper; stir in cilantro. Set dressing aside.

Heat a grill to medium heat. Place tomatoes on skewers; lightly oil tomatoes, corn and kale. Grill corn until tender, turning frequently, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly and remove kernels from cob. Grill tomatoes and kale until just charred, turning frequently, 2 to 4 minutes. Let kale cool slightly, then roughly chop leaves. Remove tomatoes from skewers.

In a bowl, combine corn kernels, tomatoes, kale, red onions and cotija cheese with lime dressing. Serve immediately.
