BLACKENED SALMON FILLETS

This is a recipe I found on All Recipes. It's SPICY, tasty and a delicious way to serve salmon. I've altered the recipe quite a bit but will spell out both variations so you can make this recipe according to what suits your family. For instance, this recipe calls for a 1/2 cup of butter but I don't use any...just olive oil to brush the fillets with. Also, this recipe states to cook the fish entirely on the stove but I blacken for a few minutes and then bake at 400 for 10 minutes for perfectly cooked fish without an overly smoky kitchen!

Time 20m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons ground paprika
1 tablespoon ground cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 lb salmon (fillets, skin removed)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (The original recipe calls for 1/2 cup butter)
olive oil flavored cooking spray

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.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality salmon fillets: Look for fillets that are firm, have a vibrant color, and have minimal bones.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry before seasoning: This will help the seasonings adhere to the fish and prevent it from steaming.
  • Use a good quality blackened seasoning: You can make your own blackened seasoning or purchase it from the store.
  • Cook the salmon fillets over high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the fish from overcooking.
  • Be careful not to overcook the salmon fillets: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it just until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the blackened salmon fillets immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Blackened country French salmon fillets are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The blackened seasoning gives the salmon a crispy crust and a flavorful interior, while the country French sauce adds a creamy and tangy flavor. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
