Instructions
- Immerse plank in warm water at least 30 minutes. Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. From limes, squeeze 2 tablespoons juice.

- In medium bowl, toss onion, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt, chipotle powder, lime juice, corn and jalapeños. Makes about 2 cups.
- Place salmon, skin side down, on plank and rub remaining 2 teaspoons oil over top; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place plank with salmon on hot grill rack; cover and cook 15 to 20 minutes or until salmon turns opaque throughout and internal temperature reaches 145°F. Drizzle salmon with lemon juice and top with salsa to serve.
