GRILLED SALMON WITH CITRUS-FENNEL SALAD AND GRILLED ESCAROLE
Steps:
- Preheat a gas grill to medium-high or prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill.
- Brush both sides of the salmon with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon, skin-side down, for 3 to 4 minutes with the gill lid closed. Open the grill, flip the salmon and cook and additional 3 to 4 minutes for medium doneness.
- Meanwhile, brush the escarole with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. On a slightly cooler area of the grill (medium heat) place the escarole cut-side down, and grill until it begins to char and the leaves have wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, season with a squeeze of lemon juice; reserve.
- In a bowl, toss the fennel, fennel fronds, onions and orange segments together until combined. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice over the salad; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
- To serve, divide the grilled escarole among 4 plates. Lean a salmon filet on the escarole on each plate and top with the citrus-fennel salad.

Steps:
- For the salsa: Peel and trim the ends from each orange. Using a paring knife, cut along the membrane on both sides of each segment. Free the segments and add them to a medium bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, scallions, mint, capers, orange zest, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes. Toss lightly and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- For the salmon: Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush the grilling rack with vegetable oil to keep the salmon from sticking. Brush the salmon on both sides with the agave nectar and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill until the fish flakes easily and is cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer the salmon to a platter and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Spoon the salsa verde on top of the salmon or serve on the side as an accompaniment.

GRILLED SALMON TOURNEDOS WITH FENNEL, CORN AND BLUEBERRY SALSA
This recipe was prepared by Mario Martel with Carl Murray of L'Astral Restaurant in the Loews Le Concorde Hotel in Québec City. Don't overcook the salmon. Cooking it slightly rare will give it a softer, more tender texture.The salsa can be served warm or cold and used with any fish. If salmon is too expensive, simply replace it with halibut. The salmon tournedos are placed on wild rice and vegetables and served with salsa and green asparagus which can be stood up by fixing them with a small skewer.

Steps:
- Heat grill to medium; brush grates with vegetable oil. Drizzle both sides of salmon with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Place salmon on grill, skin-side down, and cover. Grill, without moving fish, until just opaque in center and skin is crisp, 7 to 9 minutes. Using 2 spatulas, transfer fish to a platter. Drizzle lemon rounds with olive oil; grill until lightly charred, about 2 minutes a side. Transfer to platter; sprinkle with fennel fronds. Serve, with relish.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is firm and has a bright orange color. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in quality and may contain more contaminants.
- Cook the salmon to perfection. Salmon is best cooked when it is cooked through but still moist. To check for doneness, insert a fork into the thickest part of the salmon. If the fork comes out clean, the salmon is cooked.
- Make the fennel-orange salsa ahead of time. This salsa can be made up to 24 hours in advance, which makes it a great option for busy weeknights.
- Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Grilled salmon pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, quinoa, or rice.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon with fennel-orange salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the salsa is refreshing and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
