Steps
Start by cutting corn kernels off the cob into a large bowl. Heat a wide frying pan and dry roast your corn for 7-10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Skip the roasting if you are using grilled corn.
Once the corn is golden and got a little color, let it cool a bit. Add diced red onions, chopped scallions, chopped parsley, minced chipotles in adobo sauce, a splash of lime juice, extra virgin olive oil to bring it all together and salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir and serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Enjoy!

I landed here, tried the recipe you've generously shared and was pleasantly impressed. Mild to medium spice, great blend of distinctive flavors... great side for taco night. Much appreciated.
