Categories     Salad     Bean     Side     Lime     Salmon     Corn     Honey

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
1 medium red onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (medium heat to extra spicy)
1 teaspoon ground cumin (1/3 palmful)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 limes

1/2 cup chicken stock or broth
1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (a handful), chopped
6 cups baby spinach

Steps:

  • Preheat a medium skillet over medium heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO (twice around the pan). Add the onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
  • While the onions are cooking, preheat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. In a shallow dish, combine the juice of 1 lime, honey, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the salmon fillets to the lime-honey mixture and toss to coat thoroughly. Add the seasoned salmon to the hot skillet and cook until just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  • To the cooked onions, add the bell peppers and corn kernels and cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and continue to cook for another 2 minutes. Add the black beans and cook until the beans are just heated through. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the juice of the second lime, the cilantro, and spinach. Toss to wilt the spinach and then taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve the lime-and-honey-glazed salmon on top of the warm black bean and corn salad.

Provided by Jeremy Sewall

Categories     Fish     Tomato     Leek     Corn     Summer

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 6-ounce skin-on bluefish fillets, scaled
1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
4 tablespoons canola oil, divided
1 tablespoon butter
3 ears corn, shucked
1 leek white, split, washed, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup sweet 100 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
12 basil leaves, torn
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 thinly sliced radishes
1 lemon, halved
Equipment:
Grill or grill pan

Steps:

  • Cook the bluefish:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Season the bluefish with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. In a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons canola oil until hot and shimmering. Place the bluefish fillets skin side down in oil and do not move once in skillet. Allow the skin to become crispy, this should take about 90 seconds. Without moving the fillets, place the pan in the preheated oven for 5 to 7 minutes, until cooked through. Remove the skillet from the oven and drop the butter into the pan. As the butter begins to melt, baste the bluefish fillets. Remove from fillets from pan and set aside.
  • Make the charred corn:
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Brush the corn with 1 tablespoon canola oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Grill corn, giving a quarter turn about every 20 seconds, allowing the kernels to become slightly charred. Once charred, remove from heat. When cool enough to handle, slice the kernels off the cob.
  • In a medium pan over medium-high heat, warm the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil. Add the leek and garlic to the pan, cook until the leek begins to become transparent, about 45 seconds. Add the corn to the pan and heat through. Remove from heat and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
  • For the warm tomato salad:
  • In a medium pan over medium-low heat, warm the tomatoes in the olive oil just until they begin to release their juices. Remove from heat. Fold in the torn basil, season with sherry vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Just before serving fold in the sliced radishes.
  • To serve:
  • Place 3/4 cup of charred corn in the center of a plate. Top with seared bluefish and a generous squeeze of lemon juice over each fillet. Finish with a swoop of tomato salad around the plate.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, sweet corn: The fresher the corn, the better your salad will taste. If you can, use corn that has been picked within the last 24 hours.
  • Cook the corn properly: Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy. Cook the corn just until it is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to your salad. Some good options include tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, onions, and jalapeños.
  • Dress the salad with a flavorful vinaigrette: A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, and spices will help to bring out the flavors of the vegetables.
  • Serve the salad warm: This will help to keep the corn tender and juicy. You can also serve the salad cold, but it will not be as flavorful.

Conclusion:

Warm corn salad is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. With its fresh, sweet corn and variety of vegetables, this salad is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give warm corn salad a try.
