Salmon Steaks with Grilled Salsa

- 2 fresh moderately hot chiles, such as New Mexicos or poblanos
- 2 large jalapeno chiles

- Discard the charred skins, stems and seeds and coarsely chop the chiles.
- Over a medium-hot fire, grill the tomatillos and tomatoes, cut side down, until lightly charred and tender, about 4 minutes.
- Turn and grill, skin side down, for 1 minute.
- Grill the onion, turning, until lightly charred and tender, about 15 minutes.
- Coarsely chop the vegetables and put them in a bowl.
- Add the chiles, cilantro and lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
- Using a damp paper towel, coat the grill with the oil.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper and grill over a medium-low fire, turning once, until crusty brown and slightly rare inside, about 6 minutes per side.
- If using a fillet, cut it into 4 pieces.
- Serve the salmon with the salsa and lime wedges.
