Need a quick summer dinner? Simple grilled salmon topped with fresh avocado and corn salad is a quick-summer-dinner overachiever.
📝 Ingredients
- 1 (1 1/2 pound) skin-on salmon fillet
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 2 limes, cut into wedges
- 2 ears fresh corn, cooked
- 2 slightly firm avocados, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- 2Transfer the salmon fillet to the center of a large piece of foil. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Squeeze limes over the seasoned salmon and bring edges of foil together to wrap the salmon.
- 3Set foil-covered salmon directly on the grill. Close the lid and cook until the salmon easily flakes with a fork, about 12 minutes.
- 4Meanwhile, make the avocado salad. Remove kernels from the corn cobs. In a large bowl, combine the corn kernels, avocado, jalapeño, lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper, stir well and set aside.
- 5Once the salmon is done, divide it into 6 pieces, top with avocado salad and serve.
