1 small zucchini, cut into 1/4 inch slices

1 small yellow squash, cut into 1/4 inch slices

2 (1/4 inch) slices of red onion

Directions

1. Preheat coals for the grill.

2. Season both sides of the fillets with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place fish on the grill and cook for 4 minutes each side.

3. Season the corn with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper. Place corn on the grill and cook for 2 minutes on all sides. Remove from grill and cool completely. Using a sharp knife, remove the corn from the cob. Set aside in a bowl.

4. In preparation for the tartar sauce: put 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of garlic, 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon parsley, 2 tablespoons of green onions, 1 tablespoon mustard, and 1 chopped jalapeno pepper in a food processor and puree for 15 seconds. Season with salt and pepper.

5. With the processor running, pour 1 cup of olive oil through feeding tube in a steady stream. Season with salt and pepper. Empty contents into a bowl and fold in grilled corn kernels. Cover and let sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator before using (best if used within 24 hours).

6. For the relish: In a mixing bowl, toss vegetables with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place vegetables on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill and cool.
