Directions:
Preheat gas or charcoal grill at least 10 minutes on high heat.

Corn Sauté:
Heat two tablespoons vegetable oil in large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add shallots and sweat, stirring frequently until soft and translucent but without browning. Add all but one cup of corn kernels and reduce heat to medium; cook until tender. Remove from heat. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Whisk together the lemon juice & olive oil in a small bowl then add to the corn. Fine chiffonade the basil then add to corn along with piquillo peppers. Season with salt & pepper to taste. Set aside at room temperature while you make the corn coulis.

Corn Coulis:
Grate the corn cobs on the large holes of a box grater into a large bowl. Discard cobs. Add reserve corn kernels, grated corn, and cream to a medium saucepan; bring to a simmer or medium low heat. Stirring frequently, reduce heat to low and simmer till tender. Puree in blender until smooth. Season with salt. Keep warm.

Salmon:
Season both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper. Coat with vegetable oil and place on the hottest part of the grill at a 45 degree angle for one to two minutes without moving. Rotate 45 degrees to create a crosshatch mark and cook one to two minutes more. Flip salmon, brush with BBQ sauce. Cook one more minute or until medium rare.

To Serve:
Spoon corn coulis onto six plates. Top with room temperature corn sauté. Finish with salmon and garnish with chives.
