Emerils Salmon With Sweet Corn Tomato And Avocado Relish Food

HERB-ROASTED SALMON WITH TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and brush it lightly with oil.
• Mix together the dill, parsley, chives and basil in a small bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the mixture for the salsa and set aside.
• Put the salmon on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Drizzle the top lightly with oil, then top evenly with the herb mix. Bake until just cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, halve and peel the avocados and cut them into 1/2-inch pieces. Put the avocados in a large bowl and gently toss with the tomatoes, lemon juice, shallots, 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the reserved herbs. Transfer to a serving bowl.
• Serve the salmon with the salsa on the side.

GRILLED SALMON WITH BACON AND CORN RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill (preferably charcoal) for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place bacon in a skillet over medium heat and cook until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Cut kernels from corn ears into a large bowl using a sharp knife held at a 45-degree angle. Scrape cobs with the back of the knife into the bowl to get the juices.
• Stir white and light green parts of green onions into bacon and add red bell pepper; cook and stir until vegetables just start to become tender, about 2 minutes. Stir corn into bacon mixture and let corn just warm through. Season with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, a few chopped dark green onion tops, olive oil, and rice vinegar. Turn off heat under relish.
• Spread vegetable oil onto both sides of salmon fillets and season fish with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
• Cook on preheated grill until fish shows good grill marks, the flesh flakes easily, and fish is still slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. A crack that opens up in the salmon flesh as you cook will let you see how done the salmon is in the middle.
• Divide spinach leaves onto 2 plates and top each with a salmon fillet and half the bacon relish. Sprinkle on a few green onion tops for garnish.

EMERIL'S SALMON WITH SWEET CORN, TOMATO, AND AVOCADO RELISH

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling water, cook corn until tender, about 4 minutes. Cut off tip of each cob. Stand corn in a wide shallow bowl; using a sharp knife, slice downward to release kernels. To bowl, add tomatoes, avocados, onion, parsley, 2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss to combine.
• Heat grill to medium-high. Clean and oil hot grates. Rub fish with 1 tablespoon oil; sprinkle with Creole seasoning and season with salt and pepper. Grill fish, skin side down, until skin is crisp, 4 to 5 minutes (if fish does not release easily, cook a bit longer). Using a thin spatula, flip fish and cook until slightly pink in center, about 4 minutes more, depending on thickness of fillet. Serve salmon with corn relish.

AVOCADO CORN RELISH

Steps:

• Saute the corn with the salt and pepper, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside to cool.
• Cut the avocados, bell pepper and roasted poblanos into 1/4 inch dice. Add to the sauted corn along with the scallions, vinegar and remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Mix well and let sit 20 to 30 minutes to blend the flavors.
• Serve at room temperature. Corn relish can be stored, tightly covered, in the refrigerator up to 1 day. To make 2 to 3 days in advance, mix all the ingredients except the avocado and store in the refrigerator. Add the avocado shortly before serving.
