Peach & Bourbon Salmon with
Sweet Corn and Basil Relish

1 filet wild salmon, roughly 2 lbs.
1/2 cup peach & bourbon BBQ sauce (see recipe) 
Salt and pepper to taste

Peach, Sweet Corn, and Basil Relish 

2 juicy peaches, pitted and thinly sliced
4 cooked fresh ears of corn
1/2 cup chopped sweet basil
2 Tbsp. olive oil
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

To prepare the fish, preheat your grill or smoker to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Always rinse your fish and pat it dry with paper towels. Place the fish on the paper and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the BBQ sauce over the fish and cook with the grill or smoker closed for only 15 minutes. The fish is done when the flesh flakes easily with a fork and is opaque, meaning that translucent raw fish coloring has disappeared. Remove the fish and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

To prepare the salad, slice the fresh corn from the cob, combine with the basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and peaches. Gently mix, then pour over top of the cooked salmon. Serve alongside peach and bourbon lemonade (see recipe) and enjoy!
