Ingredients

> 2 medium ears corn, husks removed
> 3 large ripe avocados
> Canola oil, for brushing
> 3 tbsp lime juice
> 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
> 2 plum tomatoes, finely chopped
> 1 jalapeno, finely chopped
> 1/4 cup chopped red onion
> 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish
> 1/4 cup crumbled Cotija cheese or grated Parmesan
> Tortilla or corn chips, to serve

Steps

1
Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill the corn 7–10 min., turning occasionally, until kernels are charred in spots. Halve the avocados and remove pits. Lightly brush flesh with the canola oil and place cut-side-down on grill for 1–2 min., until softened.
2
Remove avocados and corn from grill. Once cool enough to handle, slice kernels off the cobs (about 2 cups). Scoop avocado flesh into a medium bowl. To bowl, add the lime juice and paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Mash with a fork until smooth.
3
To bowl, stir in corn, tomatoes, jalapeño, onion, and cilantro. Garnish with the cheese to serve. Serve with the chips.
