4 cups corn kernels fresh frozen (cut from 6 ears)
0.3 teaspoon fresh-ground pepper black
1 jalapeno minced
4 tablespoons juice of lime (from 2 limes)
4.5 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion red chopped
1.5 teaspoons salt
1.3 pounds chicken breasts boneless skinless ( 4)
1 tomatoes seeded chopped
0.7 cup water boiling
Equipment
bowl
frying pan
Directions
In a medium bowl, combine the bulgur and the water. Cover and let sit for 20 minutes.
In a large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat.
Add the corn and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Add the onion and continue cooking for 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.
Transfer to a large glass or stainless-steel bowl and let cool.
Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the frying pan and heat over moderate heat. Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the black pepper. Cook the breasts until browned and just done, about 5 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.
Add the bulgur, tomato, jalapeo, cilantro, 3 tablespoons of the lime juice, the cayenne, and 3/4 teaspoon of the salt to the bowl with the corn and onion. Toss.
In a small glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, 2 tablespoons oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mound the salad onto plates. Top with the chicken and drizzle the chicken with the lime oil.
Wine Recommendation: German rieslings show their great adaptability by flattering notoriously difficult-to-match salads. The earthy flavors of a young Pfalz sptlese will match those of the sweet corn and chicken.
