Prepare the Corn: Grill or boil the ears of corn until fully cooked. If grilling, char them slightly for added flavor. Allow the corn to cool, then cut the kernels off the cob into a large mixing bowl.

Taste and Adjust: Sample your salad and tweak the seasoning if needed—add more lime juice for tang or more chili powder for spice.
Chill and Serve: Allow the salad to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve cold and enjoy!
