I found this recipe in The Anti-Inflammation Diet and Recipe Book by Jessica Black. It is very good! You can vary the spice level too, depending on how you or those you are serving like it. 200 calories per serving The seasoning can also be used for fish, chicken, or turkey.

Ingredients

  • 1 wild salmon fillets
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil
  • 2 teaspoons thyme
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

Directions

  1. Mix seasonings together and spread onto a flat plate.
  2. Invert the salmon into the seasoning, then flip over, making sure to coat all areas.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Before the oil begins to smoke, place salmon flesh-side down in the pan.
  4. Turn the salmon after about 3 minutes.
  5. Continue cooking until flesh is still a little rare in the middle when tested with a small knife, about 2-3 more minutes.
  6. Serve with rice, quinoa, steamed veggies, etc.

    My grandmother and I have been looking for a very good salmon recipe for a while now, but we couldn't find one. So I gave this one a shot last night and we all loved it. It is a very good recipe!
