Chef notes

About the recipe: Smoky chipotle peppers bring the heat to this Southwestern-inspired dip. Use just one pepper if you want a mild dose of spiciness, or add more adobo sauce or pepper if you want to amp up the burn. If possible, use fresh, in-season corn  — the raw kernels’ juicy sweetness will offset the heat. 

 

Ingredients

  • 2 15-ounce cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
  • 1 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro, including stems, plus more for garnish
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed
  • 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ear sweet corn, kernels cut off the cob
