Grilled Salmon with Bean Salsa

 

For the Salsa:

 

2 cups precooked white beans

2 cups precooked black beans

2/3 cup red onion, finely chopped

1 cup tomato, diced and seeded

1/3 cup cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1/2 lime, or more, to taste

2 Tblsp olive oil

 

For the Fish:

 

2 boneless, skinless salmon fillets, each cut into 2 pieces (1 to 1 1/2 pounds total)

Olive oil, optional

Lime slices, for garnish

 

Directions:

 

Place the salsa ingredients in a bowl and toss gently to combine without breaking up the beans.

Set aside.

 

Brush the salmon very lightly with the oil, which is optional if you are grilling the salmon.  Oil is only

used to help with sticking if your pan frying.  When the grill or  pan is very hot, place fish on it and

cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.  Turn carefully with

a spatula.

 

Place a serving of salmon on each of 4 plates and divide the salsa equally among the plates.

Garnish with a slice of lime.
