Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 cup corn (fresh or canned)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 slices of bread, 1 ripe avocado, 1 cup of corn (fresh or canned), 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder, salt and pepper to taste, and fresh cilantro for garnish.
- If using fresh corn, husk the corn and remove the kernels from the cob. If using canned corn, drain and rinse it under cold water. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the corn, mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, toast the slices of bread until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until creamy but still slightly chunky. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice of toasted bread, creating a generous layer.
- Top the avocado layer with the corn mixture, distributing it evenly between the two slices of toast.
- Garnish each toast with fresh cilantro leaves for an added burst of flavor and color.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Street Corn Avocado Toast!
Tips
- • For the best flavor, use fresh corn when in season - the sweetness and texture are unbeatable! • Make sure your avocado is perfectly ripe - it should yield slightly when gently pressed but not feel mushy • Toast your bread until it's golden and crispy to provide a sturdy base for the toppings • Feel free to add extra heat by sprinkling additional chili powder or adding a dash of hot sauce • If you're dairy-free, substitute mayonnaise with vegan mayo or Greek yogurt • For a protein boost, consider adding crumbled cotija cheese or grilled chicken • Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect temperature and texture of the toast
