Author Notes: I pulled this together from random ingredients in my kitchen when looking for a flavorful topping to fish tacos, but found that it’s great as a salad, too. All the ingredients can be adjusted to taste. I strongly suggested grilling the fresh corn before adding to the slaw. —JulietteMiranda
