Step 1
Spray a large skillet with non-stick spray and heat it over medium-high. Toss the corn into the pan and cook, stirring every now and then, until it’s nicely browned but not burnt. Once done, transfer the corn to a big bowl. Next, mix in the tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños along with a few of the reserved jalapeño seeds for a little extra kick. Add the chipotle peppers, lime juice, olive oil, and cilantro, then give everything a good stir. Taste and season with salt as needed.
