Be sure to check out the hints below before starting this recipe. Experience will tell you that a little salt goes a long way! |
TOOLS
• Mixing Bowl
• Large non stick skillet |
|
INGREDIENTS
• 3 tbsp Cajun seasoning (unsalted)
• 1 tsp brown sugar
• 1/4 tsp kosher salt
• 4 boneless, skinless salmon fillets
(appx 6oz each)
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup orange marmalade
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• Lime wedges |
|
PREPARATION: Combine Cajun seasoning, sugar and salt in a small bowl. Rub over all surfaces of fillets. Saute fillets in oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and saute an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Blend marmalade and lime juice; swirl in skillet until melted. Carefully turn fish to glaze on all sides. The salmon is done when it begins to flake when tested with a fork. Serve with lime wedges.
HINTS: Many different Cajun seasonings have a lot of salt in them. If you don’t have an unsalted version, add a little of the kosher salt at a time and taste the mixture. It will be very easy to get too much salt if you are not careful. When turning the fillets in the skillet, a spatula underneath with tongs assisting you will help keep the fillets together. |
