How to Make Cajun Salmon
- Preheat your broiler to high.
- Rinse a 1-pound salmon fillet and pat it completely dry with paper towels. This helps it crisp up nicely.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto a baking sheet.
- Place the salmon fillet on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle another 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top.
- Generously sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning over the salmon. Adjust to your preferred spice level.
- Broil for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
