Blackening Spice Mix

Method

Preparation of Blackening Spice Mix

  1. 1

    Make the Spice Mix

    In a small bowl, combine paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Cooking the Salmon

  1. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides of the fillets with olive oil.

  2. 3

    Season the Salmon

    Generously coat the salmon fillets with the blackening spice mix, pressing it into the fillets to ensure it sticks.

  3. 4

    Cook the Salmon

    Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon fillets in the skillet skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes. Flip the fillets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and has a blackened crust.

Cooking the Vegetables

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the salmon is cooking, trim the asparagus and slice the bell pepper and red onion into strips.

  2. 6

    Season the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the asparagus, bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 7

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a separate skillet, heat over medium heat. Add the seasoned vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the blackened salmon on a plate alongside the sautéed vegetables. Enjoy your delicious blackened salmon dinner!
