Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 2 cups (fresh or frozen, thawed) corn kernels
- 1 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup, finely diced red onion
- 3 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 0.5 cup, crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent the salmon from sticking.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Brush the lemon mixture generously over both sides of each salmon fillet.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes.
While the salmon is grilling, prepare the corn salad. In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, halved cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well to coat.
Gently fold the crumbled feta cheese into the corn salad just before serving.
To serve, place a grilled salmon fillet on each plate and top with a generous spoonful of the corn salad. Garnish with extra cilantro or lime wedges if desired.
Enjoy your fresh and vibrant Lemon Grilled Salmon with Corn Salad!
