This recipe combines the smoky flavors of grilled salmon with a sweet and tangy BBQ corn salsa for a delicious and healthy summer meal.

Ingredients:

• For the Salmon:

  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin-on
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon BBQ seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

• For the BBQ Corn Salsa:

  • 4 ears of corn, shucked
  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon BBQ sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Season the salmon: Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil and season with BBQ seasoning, salt, and pepper.
3. Grill the corn: Place the corn directly on the grill grates and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly charred on all sides (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from the grill and let cool slightly.
4. Grill the salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F.
5. Make the salsa: While the salmon is cooking, cut the kernels off the cooled corn cobs. In a medium bowl, combine the corn, red onion, tomatoes, cilantro, BBQ sauce, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
6. Serve: Serve the grilled salmon with a generous scoop of BBQ corn salsa on top.

Tips:

• You can use your favorite BBQ seasoning or make your own blend.
• For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in BBQ sauce for 30 minutes before grilling.
• If you don’t have a grill, you can cook the salmon and corn in a grill pan on the stovetop.
• The BBQ corn salsa can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
