Cracked Wheat & Corn With Thai Basil, Citrus & Chiles

  1. Bring water to a boil and add cracked wheat. Stir to combine, turn off the heat and cover with a tight fitting lid for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed and wheat is tender but not mushy. Fluff with a fork and fold in grapefruit juice, zests, and a squeeze of juice from the lemon and lime. Place on a plate and let cool.
  2. Warm olive oil over medium heat until smiling and add red onions and scallions. Season with salt & pepper and sautee for 2 minutes until they smell nice, add garlic and sautee for another minute. Add corn and Mexican oregano, season with salt & pepper, and cook until corn is bright and juicy, about 4 minutes.
  3. Add chiles to the pan and stir to combine. Immediately transfer corn mixture to a large bowl, add the cooked cracked wheat, thai basil, cilantro and toss to combine. If needed, season with more salt, pepper or another splash of olive oil. Garnish with more fresh thai basil and enjoy warm or at room temp.
