- 6 slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 ears white corn
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions - white and light green parts separated from green tops
- 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 2 (8 ounce) center-cut boneless salmon fillets
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves (optional)
- Preheat an outdoor grill (preferably charcoal) for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Place bacon in a skillet over medium heat and cook until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cut kernels from corn ears into a large bowl using a sharp knife held at a 45-degree angle. Scrape cobs with the back of the knife into the bowl to get the juices.
- Stir white and light green parts of green onions into bacon and add red bell pepper; cook and stir until vegetables just start to become tender, about 2 minutes. Stir corn into bacon mixture and let corn just warm through. Season with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, a few chopped dark green onion tops, olive oil, and rice vinegar. Turn off heat under relish.
- Spread vegetable oil onto both sides of salmon fillets and season fish with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
- Cook on preheated grill until fish shows good grill marks, the flesh flakes easily, and fish is still slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. A crack that opens up in the salmon flesh as you cook will let you see how done the salmon is in the middle.
- Divide spinach leaves onto 2 plates and top each with a salmon fillet and half the bacon relish. Sprinkle on a few green onion tops for garnish.
