Preparation

  1. Step 1

    To make salsa, combine first eight ingredients in large bowl and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat grill or grill pan on high. Using about 2 tablespoons of the oil, lightly coat watermelon wedges and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the watermelon about 4 minutes per side to create slight caramelization and grill marks. Remove.

  3. Step 3

    Rub salt, pepper and the rest of the oil on fish. Lower heat to medium and grill fillets until center is just opaque, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Garnish fish with salsa; serve with grilled watermelon “steaks.”
