This is a recipe I found years ago that is supposedly from the Chipotle chef that created their corn salsa.
1 12-ounce bag of frozen sweet yellow corn, defrosted and drained (I always forget to defrost the corn and have never drained it)
2 medium-sized jalapenos, seeded and chopped (leave in some seeds for more heat if desired)
1/2 red onion, finely chopped (about 1/3 cup)
3/4 cup fresh cilantro, torn or chopped (I either forget the fresh, or the only supermarket in town is out, so I use dried)
the juice of 2 (juicy!) limes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix, mix, mix. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired. Add more cilantro, jalapeno or lime according to your tastes!
I bet black beans would work well in this recipe if your goal was to use this on something that didn’t already have beans, like as a salsa for tortilla chips.
