Salmon with Corn Pepper Relish

I saw a recipe on Pinterest for Salmon with Corn Relish. The recipe involved barbecue sauce, which gets into my aversion of sweet things with fish, so I decided to use the recipe only as an inspiration and to create something on my own that suited my tastes better, especially since I was the only one eating it. Miss F ate the relish, but still wouldn't try the fish.  This is the perfect weeknight summer meal.  It takes less than 15 minutes to make and tastes amazing.

Salmon with Corn Pepper Relish

1 jalapeno
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 ears fresh sweet corn kernels
Juice from one lime
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 salmon fillets
1 tablespoon butter

Slice half of the jalapeno pepper, seed and chop the remaining half. Set aside the slices. Stir together the chopped jalapeno, bell pepper, corn and lime juice. Salt and pepper to taste. Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Salt and pepper the salmon filets, sauté the salmon for 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the salmon and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove the salmon to a plate. Add the butter to the pan, then add the corn pepper relish to the pan and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the salmon topped with the corn pepper relish.
