Cajun Grilled Salmon Recipe

Step 1

Rub the oil all over the salmon pieces.

Step 2

To make the Cajun seasoning, mix the cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic granules, cumin, dried oregano, dried thyme, and sea salt together in a small bowl.

Step 3

Pat each piece of salmon dry with paper towels, then sprinkle with the seasoning on all sides of the salmon. Leave to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Heat your gas grill, or grill pan, to medium heat.

Step 5

Place salmon on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side (maybe a few more minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish). Watch the salmon carefully, so it doesn't burn.

Step 6

The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Optionally squeeze some lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
