1 T. olive oil 

1/2 C. coarsely chopped red onion 

2 1/2 tsp. chili powder, divided 

1 bag (14 ounces) frozen corn kernels 

1 C. frozen mixed bell pepper strips 

1/4 C. chopped cilantro + 4 sprigs for garnish 

4 boneless, skinless salmon fillets (4 ounces), about 1″ thick 

1/2 tsp. salt 

1/4 tsp. ground black pepper 

 

Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large ovenproof skillet or shallow stovetop-to-oven baking dish. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add 1 1/2 tsp. of the chili powder and stir to blend. Add the corn and bell pepper strips. Cook over medium heat, stirring, for about 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are no longer icy. Stir in the chopped cilantro. Spread the vegetables in an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tsp. chili powder evenly on the fish. Place, chili side up, on the vegetables. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for about 12 minutes, or until the fish is opaque. Serve each fillet on a bed of vegetables and garnish with a cilantro sprig.
