Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by prepping your fresh ingredients. Chop the green onions and pickled jalapeños. If using fresh corn, remove kernels from the cob and briefly cook them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and cool.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, corn kernels, chopped green onions, and jalapeños. Toss until evenly distributed.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, kosher salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  4. Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables and gently toss until all pieces are coated.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
