Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Cajun Spice Mix

    In a small bowl, combine paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all spices are evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. This will help them sear better. Brush both sides of each salmon fillet with olive oil and then generously coat them with the Cajun spice mix, ensuring an even layer of seasoning on both sides.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Charbroil the Salmon

    Preheat your charbroiler or grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  2. 4

    Serve

    Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
