Grilling: Striped Bass With Roasted Salsa Recipe

• 2 teaspoons pure chile powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 striped bass steaks, cut 1 inch thick
• Extra virgin olive oil
• 4 medium plum tomatoes, 3-4 ounces each, cored and quartered
• 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
• 1/4 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro
• 1-2 jalapenos, stemmed, quartered, and seeded
• 2 medium garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1/2 teaspoon pure chile powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

1. Mix the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Lightly coat the fish with the oil and season evenly with the rub. Refrigerate until ready to grill.
2. In a large bowl mix all of the salsa ingredients. Pile salsa ingredients in a large sheet of aluminum foil and then fold in the edges to make a sealed packet.
3. Light 1 chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread coals out evenly. Place the foil packet with the salsa ingredients directly over the coals and grill until the tomatoes are soft and the chiles are crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the packet from the grill, open the foil, and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Pour the contents of the packet into a food processor or blender and pulse just enough to make a chunky salsa. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Clean and oil the cooking grate of the grill. Place the steaks directly over the coals, cover and let cook for 5 minutes. Carefully flip the steaks and continue to cook until fish is just opaque in the center, another 2-3 minutes. Remove the fish from the grill and let sit for 5 minutes. Top steaks with the salsa and enjoy.
