Blackened Atlantic Salmon

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 3

    Cook the salmon

    Add the salmon fillets to the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and has a blackened crust.

  4. 4

    Rest the salmon

    Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
