Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 salmon fillets
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 avocados, diced
1 mango, diced
1 red onion, finely diced
1 red chili, finely diced
¾ cup fresh parsley
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine all the Cajun spice rub ingredients and stir.
  • Place the salmon fillets on a cutting board and rub the olive oil over all sides of the salmon fillets.
  • Sprinkle the spice rub over the salmon, using your hands to ensure all sides are covered.
  • Cook on a BBQ over a medium to high heat for 2 minutes per side. The outside should start to blacken and crisp, leaving the salmon juicy inside.
  • Once the salmon is cooked set aside.
  • In a large bowl, add all of the salsa ingredients and stir well.
  • Serve the salmon with an extra sprinkling of parsley alongside the salsa.
  • Enjoy!
