To prevent fish from sticking, cook on a clean, well-oiled, preheated grill.
Ingredients:
1
cup cooked corn

1
large tomato, seeded and diced

1/4
cup thinly sliced green onions with tops

1/4
cup canned diced green chiles

1
tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh cilantro

1
tablespoon lime juice

4
teaspoons olive oil, divided

1/8
teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and black pepper

1-1/2
pounds firm-textured fish steaks or fillets such as salmon, halibut, sea bass or swordfish, each 1 inch thick

Cilantro sprigs for garnish



Preparation:
1.
Combine corn, tomato, green onions, green chilies, cilantro, lime juice, 2 teaspoons oil and cumin in small bowl; mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes for flavors to blend.

2.
Brush fish with remaining 2 teaspoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Preheat charcoal grill and grease grill rack. Place fish on grill 4 to 6 inches above solid bed of coals (coals should be evenly covered with grey ashes). Cook, turning once, 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until fish turns opaque and just begins to flake. Serve with salsa. Garnish with cilantro.
