Time 12m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon cayenne
10 sprigs fresh thyme, washed, leaves removed and chopped
1 tablespoon freshly chopped oregano leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 (6 to 7-ounce) pieces salmon, pin bones removed, skin-on
3 to 4 tablespoons canola oil
2 lemons, zested and juiced

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.

I'm not sure if I can find blackened seasoning. Can I use something else instead?

I'm not a huge fan of fish, but this recipe changed my mind. The salmon was so flavorful and juicy.

The salmon came out great! The blackening seasoning was a little too spicy for me, but it was still delicious.

I've tried many blackened salmon recipes before, but this one is definitely the best. The salmon was moist and flaky, and the blackening seasoning was just the right amount of spicy.

This blackened salmon recipe was an absolute hit! The fish was cooked to perfection and the blackening seasoning gave it an amazing flavor.
