How to Make Dry Rub For Salmon
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Pat your salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Generously coat both sides of the salmon with the dry rub, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the salmon fillets in the skillet.
- Cook the salmon for 2-3 minutes on the first side, undisturbed, until a golden-brown crust forms.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, flip the salmon, and continue cooking for another 6-8 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs (optional) and enjoy!
