Blackened Salmon — Cajun recipe
Blackened Salmon, photographed for the Kitchen Pantri cookbook.

Blackened Salmon

Salmon fillets brushed with butter and coated in a smoky, slightly spicy Cajun-style rub of paprika, garlic, onion, oregano, thyme, cayenne and a pinch of brown sugar, then seared in a screaming-hot cast-iron skillet until a dark, flavorful crust forms. Juicy inside and on the table in about 20 minutes.
