Ingredients

Scale

Roasted Corn and Potatoes:

  • 1 pound small new potatoes, with peel, diced in about 1-inch pieces (i.e., Yukon gold or red-skinned)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups fire-roasted frozen corn, thawed (or 2 medium ears of corn, husks removed, cut in half)

Salad:

  • 1 3/4 cups cooked lima beans (may use frozen and thawed, or a 15 ounce can drained)
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 1/4 medium red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

Vinaigrette:


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
  2. To roast potatoes, place diced potatoes with peel on a baking sheet. Sprinkle evenly with garlic, oregano, thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss together with tongs to distribute well. Place in the top rack of the oven and roast until tender and golden yet firm (about 20-25 minutes), turning with tongs to evenly cook halfway through cooking. Remove from the oven and cool slightly.
  3. Add fire-roasted corn to a large salad bowl. Alternatively, roast fresh ears of corn on a hot grill for about 15-20 minutes, until golden and tender. Cool slightly, then slice corn off the cob and place in the salad bowl.
  4. Add lima beans, celery, onions, cilantro or parsley, and tomatoes to the salad bowl and toss gently.
  5. Whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Drizzle over salad and toss gently to combine ingredients. May adjust seasonings as needed.
  6. Serve immediately, or chill until serving time. Makes 6 servings (about 1 1/4 cups each).

Notes

Try substituting another herb for cilantro or parsley, such as fresh basil, dill, or sage.

You may substitute another cooked bean for lima beans, such as black beans or pinto beans.
