Blackened Salmon Fillets Food

BLACKENED SALMON

Steps:

• In a small bowl, add the paprika, cayenne, thyme and oregano and salt and mix to blend. Put the mixture on a plate or other flat surface and coat the portions of salmon, 1 at a time, on the flesh side only.
• Heat a large heavy-bottomed pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat, and add the oil. When the oil begins to smoke quite heavily shut the heat off under the pan. Add the salmon, 1 at a time, in a single layer, flesh side down, in the oil. Turn the heat back on under the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Use a spatula to turn the salmon to the other side. Cook the salmon over medium heat, until the skin becomes crispy, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• Arrange the salmon on a platter, sprinkle with lemon zest and lemon juice and serve immediately.

BLACKENED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix paprika, cayenne pepper, onion powder, salt, white pepper, black pepper, thyme, basil and oregano.
• Brush salmon fillets EVOO until moist, and sprinkle evenly with the cayenne pepper mixture. Mist with EVOO spray (I use Garlic flavored EVOO spray).
• In a large, heavy skillet over high heat, cook salmon, until blackened, 2 to 5 minutes. Turn fillets, brush with remaining EVOO , and continue cooking until blackened and fish is easily flaked with a fork.
• At this point, I bake at 400 for 10 minutes or until desired doneness (I like mine well done). If you don't like yours well done, skip the baking stage.

BLACKENED SALMON

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Lay salmon fillets skin-side down into a shallow ceramic or glass baking dish. Squeeze equal amounts of lime juice over each filet and let sit 5 minutes.
• In a food processor, blend onion powder, thyme, basil, oregano, chile, pepper, salt, and sugar until homogeneous. Spread the spices evenly onto a large plate or baking sheet.
• Lift salmon fillets from lime juice, then flesh side down into spice mix, pressing very gently to encourage spices to stick to fish. Turn each fillet onto sides and press again.
• Heat a large grill pan over medium-high and add some oil to the pan. Once hot, add fillets skin-side down, and cook 4 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully flip and cook for a additional 5 minutes or until cooked through.
