To make up for the incredibly lame pun about what Al Gore called Disco
after he invented it (algorithm), here's a tasty recipe that fits the
Lent/Spring Break time of year:
MARGARITA SALMON WITH GRILLED CORN ON THE COB & ROASTED POTATOES
1 side (3 lbs or so) fresh salmon, skin on (recipe feeds 8)
1/4 cup chopped garlic
1 bunch cilantro
2 tablespoons black pepper
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon red chile pepper flakes
1 (16-ounce) margarita [see recipe below]
1+1/4 cups extra virgin olive oil
8 ears corn on the cob
16 Red Bliss potatoes
1/4 cup Italian dressing
Place salmon skin-side down in pan with high sides. Rub salmon with
garlic, cilantro, pepper, sugar, salt, and chile pepper flakes.
Pour margarita and oil over salmon, flip fish over and refrigerate for
one to two hours (but no longer).
Light charcoal grill (adjust timing as needed for gas grill). Soak corn
with husk on, fully submerged. Preheat oven to 375 degrees (for
potatoes).
Cut potatoes into quarters and toss in Italian dressing. Spread out on
cookie sheet, cover with foil, and bake 20 to 25 minutes.
When coals (or gas grill) are ready, take corn out of the water and
place on grill still in the husk. Keep turning so that the husk browns
evenly on all sides. Remove from grill and place in a pan and cover, to
continue steaming.
Take salmon out and cut into 8 portions, leaving the skin on (the skin
helps hold it together while grilling).
Grill fish to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side, depending on
the thickness of the salmon (keep away from highest heat as this dries
it out too much).
Remove salmon from grill, shuck corn, and serve with the roasted
potatoes and more margaritas.
