ALASKA SALMON W. TOMATILLO SAUCE, FRESH CORN & POBLANO CHILE

Steps:

• For the Sauce:.
• Combine the tomatillos, serrano chilies, cilantro, and lime juice in the blender and puree until very smooth. Season with salt and pepper and keep chilled until ready to serve. (Do not hold longer than two hours).
• For the Corn:.
• Husk the corn and shave the kernels off the cob. Place the cream in a pot, cooking down to reduce by 1/2. Roast the poblanos under a broiler and place in a bowl to steam, covered, ten minutes. When the chilies are cool to handle, peel, seed, and roughly chop. Combine the corn, poblanos, and cream and set aside. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• When Ready to Serve:.
• Saute Alaska salmon until desired doneness, about four minutes on each side. Place about two ounces of the tomatillo sauce in the center of a serving plate. Ladle some of the warm corn mixture in the center and place the salmon fillets on top. Serve with slices of grilled zucchini.

POBLANO CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• Lay whole peppers (chiles or bell peppers) on their sides on racks of gas stove burners (preferably 1 to a burner) and turn flame on high. Roast peppers, turning them, until skins are blistered and have brown patches, 3 to 6 minutes. Do not overchar bell peppers; they will lose their bright color. (Alternatively, peppers may be roasted in same manner on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from heat.) Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle. Peel peppers (wear rubber gloves when handling chiles). Cut off tops and discard seeds and ribs. Chop peppers. Peppers may be prepared 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Chop garlic and chop enough onion to measure 1 cup. In a nonstick skillet cook garlic and onion in oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Skim fat from broth. Stir in broth and peppers and simmer 1 minute. In a blender puree mixture until completely smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids) and season with salt.

SEARED SALMON WITH TOMATILLO COULIS

• Quarter onion. In a shallow baking pan toss onion, tomatillos (in husks), chiles, and garlic cloves with 2 tablespoons olive oil until coated. Roast vegetables in middle of oven until tender, about 25 minutes.
• Wearing rubber gloves, peel chiles. Cut off tops of chiles and remove seeds and ribs. Discard husks from tomatillos and peel garlic. In a blender purée roasted vegetables and all remaining coulis ingredients except water, adding just enough water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary to facilitate blending. Season coulis with salt.
• With a paring knife make 3 slits in top of each salmon fillet and stuff each with a basil leaf. With a mortar and pestle or an electric coffee/spice grinder coarsely grind peppercorns. Brush salmon with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with ground peppercorns and sea salt. In a large nonstick skillet heat olive oil over high heat until hot but not smoking and sear salmon fillets, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and just cooked through, about 7 minutes total. Serve salmon with coulis.
