1. Prepare Red Bell Pepper Coulis; set aside. Slice zucchini lengthwise
into 1/4 inch thick strips, stopping at the inside part of the zucchini
containing the seeds; discard middle portions. Cut strips lengthwise into
long thin "noodles"; set aside.
2. Combine lime juice and next 4 ingredients (lime juice through garlic) in
a small bowl. Rub salmon with juice mixture. Dredge salmon in flour. Melt 2
teaspoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add
salmon; saute 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when
tested with a fork. Remove salmon from skillet. Set aside; keep warm.
3. Spoon Red Bell Pepper Coulis onto 6 serving plates. Top with zucchini
noodles and salmon. Garnish with chopped parsley and freshly ground pepper,
if desired.
