Pan-Grilled Salmon with Red Pepper Salsa

This recipe was pretty easy. There wasn't anything real special about how you cooked the fish, but the red pepper salsa really made it. I could see someone doing this with chicken as well and it tasting just as great. It came from Cooking Light, August 2010, p26.


"Salmon:
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chile powder
4 (6-ounce) skinless salmon fillets
Cooking spray

Salsa:
1 cup prechopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped tomato
2 tablespoons prechopped red onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
Preparation
1. To prepare salmon, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Combine first 5 ingredients; rub evenly over fillets. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add fillets to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.

2. While fish cooks, prepare salsa. Combine bell pepper and remaining ingredients. Serve salsa with fillets."
