This Black Bean Corn Feta Dip is an easy appetizer or snack, packed with flavors and comes together in about 5 minutes. Serve it with tortilla chips, pita bread or fresh vegetables for dipping.
Drain and rinse the black beans and corn, finely dice the red onion, chop the cilantro, remove seeds and dice the jalapeño (if using).
If you want to use BBQ charred corn, grill it on the bbq. Then, using a sharp knife, cut along side of the cob to release the corn. Use approximtaltey 3 corn on the cob or 1 ½ cups.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the black beans, corn, crumbled feta cheese, red onion, cilantro and jalapeño (if using). Gently mix the ingredients to evenly distribute them.
In a small bowl or a glass measuring cup, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the black bean and corn mixture. Gently toss everything together to ensure all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning as needed. If you prefer a spicier dip, you can add more jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Let the dip chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is optional but recommended for the best flavor.
