Editor’s Tip: If it is accessible to you, try to locate fresh or frozen sweet white corn for the most authentic Chipotle corn salsa. It’s what they use in their recipe. However, if all you can find is a blend of white and yellow corn, it’s equally delicious.
Roasted corn: Chipotle doesn’t roast their corn, but that doesn’t mean you can’t! Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut fresh corn kernels from cobs. Spread corn in single layer on a rimmed baking sheet pan. Roast until golden brown, stirring twice, about 30 to 40 minutes.
The corn is lightly cooked to bring out its sweetness, then tossed together with two types of peppers (roasted poblano and jalapeño) for a bit of smoke and heat. Aromatics like lime juice, cilantro, and red onion give this salsa its zesty flavor.
