Blackened Salmon
RECIPE COURTESY OF ALEX GUARNASCHELLI
Level: Easy
Total: 12 min
Cook: 12 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
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
Directions
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.

[@dwdwone]

I would add put the oil in after the pan heats up to avoid the oil burning. Also use a high smoke point oil like avocado oil.

[@GourmetGymKitchen]

[@drewconway7135]

I disagree that raw salmon is mouthwatering, but the final product looks really good.

[@kelskitchenpresents]

I don't add salt to my salmon either because it's naturally salty. Nice recipe.

[@michaelwalker2579]

Y no salt

[@clintmadman9711]

Looks better then those pan seared scallops that were burnt in the other video she made

[@ernestcoleman1821]

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

Waiter? Yes, I think the cook may have gotten a phone call or something and turned by fish into charcoal?

[@foxylaidy08]

No salt!?!! Wtf....bye

[@LBloggie]

The natural salt of the fish comes out when u pan fry it

[@Desu-Desu-Chan-San]

Ugh, do not alter the resolution of your vids. Makes me sick just looking at it x.x

[@cwigingtonjr]

1st world problems

[@Desu-Desu-Chan-San]

@@cwigingtonjr Na, first world problems would be making pissy comments about constructive criticism, not the criticism itself.

[@cwigingtonjr]

@@Desu-Desu-Chan-San u mad?

[@Desu-Desu-Chan-San]

@@cwigingtonjr More amused than anything. Not often you see a relic like "u mad?", vintage memes.

[@lavar_ball7436]

ummm... think you meant skin side down since that's what you did

[@NUNU-cd6by]

No its not facing the pan, its on the side

[@MarioMVasilevBackUp]

The skin is the grey part which did not touch the pan

[@mudbutter3916]

Open borders for Israel we need more diversity for Israel

[@millennialdisposition]

No salt?
