Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment. Cut the kernels from 2 ears corn, dice 1 red bell pepper and 8 ounces Roma tomato, mince 2 garlic cloves, and thinly slice 2 green onions into about 2 tablespoons white parts and 2 tablespoons green parts.
2. Pat 1 pound sockeye salmon dry and place it skin-side down on the prepared pan. Rub with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then season with 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
3. Oven-roast the seasoned 1 pound sockeye salmon until it flakes around the edges but remains moist in the center, 10–12 minutes, or until it reaches 145°F for food safety.
4. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 cups corn kernels, 1 cup diced red bell pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred, about 6 minutes.
5. Add 8 ounces diced Roma tomato, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 2 tablespoons sliced green-onion whites to the skillet. Cook for 3 minutes, then remove the skillet from the heat.
6. Melt 3 tablespoons unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until golden and nutty-smelling, 3–4 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon honey.
7. Rest the roasted 1 pound sockeye salmon for 5 minutes. Fold 2 tablespoons sliced green-onion greens and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt into the succotash, divide it between two plates, top with the salmon, and spoon over all the lemon brown butter.
