This simple, Louisiana-inspired rub instantly livens up any fish, and it’s particularly good with salmon. You can serve the salmon with a thinly-sliced onion, avocado, and cherry tomato salad for a light, flavorful dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp light brown sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 4 skinless salmon fillets, approx. 5½ oz (150 g) each
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- thinly sliced onion, avocado, and cherry tomato salad, to serve
How to Make It
- Combine the spices, thyme, sugar, and salt in a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder. Grind to a fine powder.
- Rub the mixture over both sides of the fish, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest in the refrigerator while you prepare the broiler.
- Preheat the broiler to its highest setting and line a grill pan with foil. Brush the fish with a little oil on both sides, being careful not to dislodge the spice rub, and broil for 3–4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.
- Once done, serve the grilled salmon on a plate with the onion, avocado, and cherry tomato salad.
