Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425. Line sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Add the jalapeño to the sheet pan, face down. Drizzle with a little olive oil and roast for 18-20 minutes until charred.
Step 3
While the pepper roasts, char the corn. Brush the outside with a little olive oil, then use tongs to char corn over the stove or you can place on a sheet pan and roast about 4 minutes per side. Use a knife to shave the kernels off the husk. Set aside.
Step 4
Add the kale to a food processor and pulse for about 15 seconds. Repeat until kale is finely minced. Remove from the food processor and set aside in a bowl.
Step 5
When the jalapeño is done roasting, remove from the oven, allow it to cool for a minute or two then peel away the skin and remove the stem. Set aside.
Step 6
Make the dressing. Add the sour cream, tahini, honey, cilantro, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin and water to a blender and blend until very smooth.
Step 7
Make the salad. Add the kale, tomatoes, avocado, black beans, corn, red onion, cilantro and feta to a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to combine until well coated.
Step 8
Serve with chips and topped with extra feta, if desired.
