This colorful Simple Corn Salsa Recipe pairs beautifully with my Air Fryer Baja Fish Tacos with White Sauce recipe.

You know what is really cool and delicious?

In the summer, when corn is out in all the grocery stores, grab some fresh corn.

Use my Pressure Cooker Corn on the Cob recipe and add some yummy flavor to the corn and then make this Simple Corn Salsa Recipe!

You can even cut off the kernels of my Mexican Elote Street Corn on the Cob and add the other ingredients for a yummy Mexican flair and call it “Elote Corn Salsa”!

 

Dice Vegetables Evenly

Make sure that your knife is very sharp.

Dice up all the vegetables.

For a fantastic meal, make my Santa Maria Style Grilled Tri-Tip and serve the Fresh and Simple Corn Salsa as a side dish.

 

Lots of Fresh Lime

Lots of Fresh Lime

Nothing better than Freshly Squeezed Lime.

A quick squeeze of Lemon, takes this Simple Corn Salsa Recipe up another notch.

If you can’t get your hands on Fresh Limes and Lemons, try the True Crystallized line of products.

Their True Lime and True Lemon, taste almost identical to freshly squeezed.

 

Mix it all Up!!!

This salad is so delicious. Try serving it with my Air Fryer Tijuana Street Tacos or serve it along side my incredible Instant Pot Pork Carnitas. It is awesome for a taco topping!

Fully Loaded Options for Fresh and Simple Corn Salsa:

  • Roasted Poblano Pepper
  • Diced Avocado
  • Sambal Oelek Ground Chili Paste
  • White Sugar -if your corn is not sweet, add just a touch to add sweetness
