Barbecued Salmon with Fresh Raspberry Salsa
Makes: 4 servings
For charcoal grill, cook salmon on greased grill rack directly over medium coals for 8 to 12 minutes or until salmon flakes when tested with a fork, turning once halfway through grilling. (For gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place salmon on greased grill rack over medium heat. Cover and grill as above.)This can totally be done in the oven as well.
For raspberry salsa, in medium bowl combine nectarines, raspberries, pecans, and the remaining 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce. Serve salmon with salsa and lemon wedges.

I like to top with Agave Nectar for an added sweetness.
