Steps:
- 1. In a shallow dish, stir together all Cajun seasoning ingredients. Add shrimp and toss until thoroughly coated in the seasoning blend. Set seasoned shrimp aside while you prepare the salmon.
- 2. Lightly season each salmon fillet with a bit of salt and pepper.
- 3. Heat 2 Tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add honey and whisk to combine (mixture should be bubbly). Add salmon fillets to skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, then flip and cook another 4-5 minutes or until salmon is cooked through, flaky, and browned. Transfer salmon to a plate and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
- 4. Add remaining 4 Tbsp butter to the same skillet over medium heat. Once butter is melted, stir in the seasoned shrimp, and saute until opaque and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes total, turning frequently to prevent burning.
- 5. Serve salmon topped with shrimp. Drizzle extra pan sauce over the top of each serving, and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.
EASY CAJUN SALMON
Cajun salmon is a quick and easy dinner recipe that is bursting with flavor. Cajun seasoned salmon is quickly seared until blacked, then a little cream (or dairy-free cashew cream) is added to the pan to make a creamy cajun sauce. It's delicious!

Steps:
- Mix the seasoning ingredients together in a small bowl. Reserve about ½ tablespoon of the seasoning then sprinkle the remaining evenly over the top of the salmon.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add the salmon to the pan, top side facing down. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the side of the salmon that is facing the pan is well-browned (blackened). Flip the salmon over and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is fully cooked. It should reach an internal temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the salmon from the pan.
- Add the cream and the reserved ½ tablespoon of cajun seasoning to the pan. Simmer for about 1 minute, or until the cream reduces slightly. Serve the salmon with the cajun cream sauce poured over the top and a little minced parsley for color.

Steps:
- To prepare the sauce, stir together all ingredients. Place salmon in a nonreactive dish. Pour the sauce over the salmon and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes. Preheat grill to medium-hot. Drain the salmon, reserving the marinade. Grill salmon for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, basting with the sauce, until the fish is cooked to taste. Tip: to bake, preheat oven to 400F. Marinate salmon in an ovenproof casserole dish and transfer directly to the oven. Bake for 15 minutes.
