Preparation

  1. Step 1

    To make the salmon, puree the parsley, chili, garlic and oil in a food processor. Season the salmon with salt and rub with the puree. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

  2. Step 2

    To make the corn, heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat, add shallots, garlic and chili and saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Add broth and corn, turn heat to high and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in beans and arrowroot and simmer 2 to 3 minutes until thickened. Stir in salt and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    To make the salsa, heat 2 teaspoons oil in a medium skillet, add onion and garlic and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Cool. Place in a food processor with the tomatillos and puree.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. If desired, place the salmon in a hot smoker for 15 minutes. Place the salmon, smoked or plain, on a baking sheet and roast until just cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Place 1 piece of salmon on each plate; spoon some corn mixture and some salsa beside each piece. Garnish with red pepper and serve.
