South black bean salad -ovest

When you are grilling throughout the summer, you need a side dish to keep up with the flavor that comes out of your smoker. I ate some of the best barbecues in the world, from some of the best pitmaster there out of the out of the south-west black bean salads could be my favorite per bite.

It has a fantastic mix of bold flavors, bright ingredients and killer partitions: creamy black beans, grilled corn, rich avocado and a homemade dressing that makes the entire dish sing. Although gray your corn (and should), everything meets in less than 30 minutes. If You can be able to let it rest, it only improves over time. Good luck with this, though.

Try it once and you will start looking for apologies to mount a little: dip for the day, Taco Tuesday Topper or simply because. No judgment here. If you are ready to start buying Tortilla chips in bulk, let me teach you how to make this easy salad of black beans.

What is black bean salad?

If you have already tried my cowboy caviar, you are already familiar with the atmosphere, but this salad of black beans -ovest -west allows the black beans to be at the center of the scene (no chickpeas here) with only a pinch of hot sauce heat to keep things interesting. Both are fresh and perfect for the shot, but this brings a smoked and crazy turning point that makes it feel – and taste – totally new.

Think like Cool, a cousin of the south -ovest who always comes to the party.

Ingredients for this recipe

This spicy and smoked salad uses a combination of fresh products that you can easily find in any grocery store and in some bases of the pantry. It is simple, direct and meets quickly. Here’s what you will need:

For salad:

  • 2 cans of 15.5 ounces black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 4 ears corn (cooked and cut the cob, about 2 cups)
  • 1 cup Uva or cherry tomatoes (Quartered)
  • 2 avocado (peeled, pitted and diced)
  • ½ cup Fresh coriander leaves (chopped)
  • ½ cup red onion (diced)
  • ¼ cup red pepper (diced)
  • ¼ cup Jalapeños Sottaceto (diced)

For the dress of homemade Southwest:

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 2 lime, if you are going fresh)
  • 2 teaspoons spicy sauce (I use the Cholula)
  • 2 teaspoons Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper (just broken)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

The best Neri bean salad corn

Could you ask you: “Do you really care what corn I use?” The short answer: yes and no. The frozen corn works perfectly (once thawed), but for my money, nothing beats the corn you have added a little smoky flavor to yourself. If you want to create one of yours, try one of these simple methods:

Whatever you choose, make sure that the corn is completely cooked and cooled before adding it to the salad.

How to prepare black bean salad

This salad is large in flavor and short effort, so it is perfect for every occasion. Follow these simple steps when you are ready to do it:

  1. Make the dressing. In a small bowl, beat the olive oil together, the lime juice, the spicy sauce, the honey, the salt, the pepper and the garlic powder until smooth and completely combined.
  2. Prepare the ingredients of the salad. Drain and rinse the black beans, cook and cool the corn (if you have not already done it) and cut all your fresh ingredients: tomatoes, avocado, coriander, onion, pepper and jalapeños.
  3. Put everything together. Add everything in a large bowl, then pour the seasoning above. Gently fold to combine, being careful not to crush the avocado or beans. I recommend using a file rubber spatula So you can uniformly cover everything keeping that fantastic and big consistency.
  4. Let it cool. Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to melt the flavors. It improves even longer. This step is optional, but trust me, your taste buds will thank you for your patience.
  5. Serve and have fun. After a quick cold in the fridge, it is time for the moment of truth. Serve your black bean salad with a large sack of crispy and savory tortilla, then feel back and look how quickly the bowl empties. It is the perfect light and the bright complement for all your rich and heavy BBQ meats. It is also fantastic as a topper for tacos chest and chicken nachos. If there is a way you normally like the sauce, try it with this and thank me later.

Storage and prepare in advance

This salad has a flavor even better after a few hours in the fridge (or during the night), so it is a perfect dish for makeaade. The flavors are deepened, the dressing immerses itself and you can roll up to your cookout knowing that you have a stress -free and dormant success ready to steal the show.

If you are serving it immediately, a quick cold under the plastic casing in the refrigerator makes makeup. For leftovers or prepare in advance, keep it in an airtight container. It will remain fresh and tasty for 3-4 days. Make him just a sweet mixing before serving to bring everything back to life.

Susie’s Black Bean Pro Tips salad

The only recipe card has everything you need to create a salad that your family will devour quickly and require again immediately. However, I included some suggestions to help you bring this recipe to the barbecue hero status:

  • Cook your corn. I know I have already mentioned it, but grilling, smoking or wrapping the corn is an easy way to add great flavor.
  • Let it cool. You can absolutely enjoy this salad immediately after doing it, but it is worth giving those flavors the time to get married and merge for 30 minutes.
  • Choose your level of heat. If you like heat, you can increase the amount of spicy sauce or Jalapeños. Or you can back away if you want a milder version.
  • Handle with care. You want a pleasant and big salad, not a puree. Be kindly be when mixing everything together, especially once the avocado joins the party.
