Use any salsa you like in this dish: mild, medium, or hot. For the best flavor, buy the fresh variety sold in the refrigerator section of grocery stores. To add more heat, cook 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes with the corn and garlic in step 3.

　　

Ingredients

Serves 4

　　4 skinless salmon fillets (6 ounces each)

　　Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper

　　2 teaspoons chili powder

　　1 pound medium zucchini, quartered lengthwise, cut crosswise into 3-inch spears (about 1/2 inch thick)

　　1 tablespoon olive oil

　　1 package (10 ounces) frozen corn kernels (2 cups)

　　1 garlic clove, minced

　　1/2 cup chopped scallions

　　1 cup prepared fresh tomato salsa (half a 12-ounce container)

　　Lime wedges, for garnish (optional)

　　

Step 1

Heat the broiler; set a rack 4 inches from the heat. Rub the salmon all over with salt and pepper. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet; sprinkle the top of the fillets with 1 teaspoon of the chili powder. Arrange the zucchini around the salmon; sprinkle with the remaining teaspoon chili powder, and season with salt and pepper.

　　

Step 2

Broil until the fish is opaque through-out and the zucchini is tender, 8 to 10 minutes.

　　

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat. Add the corn and garlic; cook, tossing, until the corn is tender and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the scallions and salsa; season generously with salt and pepper.

　　

Step 4

Place the fillets on plates, and serve with the zucchini and the corn mixture. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired.
