  • The recommended internal temperature of cooked fish is 145° F. Cooking time varies with thickness of fillets.
  • This recipe works well with trout.
  • Substitute 1/2-cup frozen or unsalted, canned corn kernels for fresh corn if desired. Stir in a skillet over high heat to toast before adding to salsa.
