Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

8 -10 ounces salmon steaks
3/4 lb unsalted butter (olive oil works better)
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cayenne powder
3/4 teaspoon white pepper
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

Steps:

Each steak works best if it is about 3/4 inches thick, especially when using a cast iron skillet. Coat each stake with the butter (or olive oil) and let sit while the rest of the butter/olive oil heats up in the pan. After about 10 minutes, coat each stake on both sides with the seasoning mix and let it cook for around 2 minutes uncovered. Afterwards, flip it over and cook the stakes until they are a nice pink color inside. The time that it takes to cook each stake determines on how large they are.

BLACKENED INDIAN SALMON

Blackened Indian Salmon image

This is a dry-rubbed Salmon recipe with a nice bit of heat and curry-like flavor, without the need for a heavy sauce. Delicious and relatively healthy. The key to making it great is finding a THICK piece of Salmon. The spice rub is very intense, so you don't want the crust to cover too much surface area.

Time 50m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/3 cup frozen edamame or 1/3 cup canned chick-peas
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (more or less depending on your heat tolerance)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 lb salmon fillet
vegetable oil

Steps:

1. Cook Edamame as per package instructions (not required for Chickpeas).
2. Grind cooked Edamame or Chickpeas into Falafel-like texture and spread out on paper plate to dry out (if cooked).
3. Mix together all spices.
4. Combine spices with Edamame or Chickpeas. Should feel like breadcrumbs.
5. Coat Salmon with mixture and set aside for 30 minutes.
6. Coat pan with a thin layer of oil and put over medium-high heat until oil is very hot, but not smoking.
7. Drop Salmon in oil and cook for 2-4 minutes on each side (depending on filet thickness). Salmon should be blackened and crusty on the outside, flaky on the inside, and lightly cooked in the very middle.
8. Serve with a cooling yogurt-based or citrusy side dish.

Tips:

Choose the right salmon: Look for a fresh, wild-caught salmon fillet with a vibrant red or orange color. Avoid fillets that are pale or have brown spots.
Use a hot pan: The key to getting a good sear on the salmon is to use a hot pan. Preheat your pan over medium-high heat before adding the salmon.
Season the salmon well: Before cooking, season the salmon with a generous amount of salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Cook the salmon skin-side down: Place the salmon fillet in the hot pan skin-side down. This will help to crisp up the skin and prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan.
Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking multiple salmon fillets, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the salmon from cooking evenly.
Cook the salmon until it's flaky: The salmon is done cooking when it's flaky and opaque in the center. You can check this by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the salmon is still translucent, it needs to cook for a few minutes longer.
Let the salmon rest before serving: Once the salmon is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and the salmon to finish cooking.
