This is like restaurant style salmon, only better. Easy to make and even better to taste.
Cajun Seasoning:
2 1/2 tbs paprika
2 tbs salt
2 tbs garlic powder
1 tbs black pepper
1 tbs onion powder
1 tbs cayenne pepper
1 tbs dried oregano
1 tbs dried thyme
combine all thoroughly. (best part is this makes 2/3 of a cup so you can use it in other dishes in the future, like chicken)
Fruit Salsa:
3/4 cup small diced pineapple
3/4 cup small diced mango
1/2 cup small diced strawberries
1/4 cup small red onion
1 jalapeno stemmed and diced
2 tbs chopped fresh mint leaves
2 tbs fresh squeezed orange juice
1 tbs fresh squeezed lime juice
1/4 tsp salt
Combine in a non reactive bowl and let macerate for 20 - 30 min.
Heat grill to a medium.
Brush both sides of the salmon with olive oil and season with the seasoning
Place fish on grill, skin side down and cook on each side for at least 3 min, or until fish is desired doneness.
Serve and top with salsa and enjoy!
In order to ensure max hotness, i always add an extra bit of cayenne for flair, and if you like spicy make salsa during the day and let macerate for 2-3 hours to ensure all the heat absorbs into the salsa. I also add some cayenne to the salsa even though it doesn't call for it because it adds more spice. ENJOY!!
