The salmon was outstanding, but I don't know if my Anaheim chiles were extra hot, I couldn't even eat the salsa without feeling like my mouth was on fire. I was able to salvage the relish by removing most of the chiles. Next time I'll have more corn and less chiles.
Grilled Salmon with Roasted Corn Relish
Grilled chiles and corn give the relish a wonderfully smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with grilled salmon seasoned with just salt, pepper, and cumin. Serve with a mixed green salad to round out the meal.
