Corn and Bacon Salad

Servings:

This is a great recipe that I've modified over the years. The flavors are terrific and the ingredients and ratios are very flexible. Adapt it to make it your own specialty. It is a go-to, clean-out-the-refrigerator kind of dish. It also stores well and actually tastes better the next day, making it perfect for picnics and potlucks. Serve warm or chilled.

Instructions

  1. 1 Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook until slightly soft but still crisp, about 5 minutes. Cut corn kernels from the cobs; discard cobs.
  2. 2 Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir bacon in hot oil until browned and crispy, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, reserving drippings in the skillet.
  3. 3 Cook potatoes, stirring occasionally, in the same skillet over medium heat until potatoes are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add red bell pepper and salt; cook and stir until peppers are tender, about 5 minutes more.
  4. 4 Stir corn kernels into potato mixture and cook until corn is heated through, about 5 minutes.
  5. 5 Pour corn-potato mixture into a large bowl. Add bacon, red onion, cider vinegar, and red pepper flakes; toss to combine.
