I just finished eating this splendid dish. It was soooooo good I had to add it to my food blog. I probably know a dozen ways to make a tasty salmon and I am sure I will be adding more eventually along with some pizzas which I have yet to do still :) This one I just invented tonight to try something different and it was a grand slam success. It would be silly not to share it with you!

Fillet of wild salmon - size will depend on how hungry you are and quantity will depend on how many people you are serving.
Olive Oil extra virgin
Garlic cloves or minced garlic

Seasonings:
Sage to taste
Sea Salt just a pinch of
Fresh Ground Black Pepper to taste but not too much here
Cayenne Pepper to taste
Chef Paul Prudhommes Magic Seasoning Blends, "Blackened Redfish Magic"

Start by brushing wild salmon fillet(s) with olive oil, extra virgin. Season fillet(s)of wild salmon on both sides. Place seasoned salmon fillet(s) on broiler pan. If skin is still on, skin side down then stick 'em in the oven. If you're grilling just place the fillet(s)skin side down on the grill. I oven cook at about 415 - 425 degrees and it takes anywhere between 10 and 14 minutes depending on if the fillet(s) are frozen or not. On the grill it varies even more depending on how hot the coals are burning. Either way, cook until done to your liking :) If you don't like spicy food just leave the cayenne pepper off.

Tonight I made this with a side dish blend of fresh broccoli and onion cooked in olive oil and garlic seasoned with a little bit of fresh ground black pepper. It went great as a side dish with the salmon.

Make sure you write me to let me know how it was if you decide to try out my Cayenne Blackened Salmon ;)

Enjoy!

    I don't know if I've ever seen any of "Chef Paul Prudhommes Magic Seasoning Blends", but I'll be sure to look for it in the grocery store this weekend. Hopefully I can find it!

    Thanks for sharing - I've been trying to find more ways to prepare fish (other than lemon and dill). :smile:

    Im a big experimenter and never was a big fish eater so starting to make fish is going to be a huge game to me where each time i make it will be a new experiment!
