Jerk Lemon Pepper Salmon

Ingredients:

• 1 or 2 pieces of Salmon (about 1 ½ lbs)
• 2 T Butter
• 1 T Peanut or Canola Oil only
• 1 lemon sliced
• Roasted vegetables (See recipe under ‘Vegetables’)
• 2 T Jerk Seasonings (blend)
• 1 T Salt
• 1 T Black Pepper
• ½ T Chile Powder
• ¼ T Red Pepper Flakes
• ¼ T Paisley
• 2 tsp Paprika
• 1 T Thyme
• 1 T Cinnamon
• ½ Nutmeg
• ½ All Spice
• 1 T Brown Sugar
• Lemon Pepper Seasoning:
• 1 T Salt
• 1 T Cracked Black Pepper
• 1 T Lemon Zest

Directions:

1. Heat skillet to medium. Add butter and Peanut or Canola oil.
2. Rinse salmon, pat dry. Drizzle oil over. Season all sides with Jerk and Lemon Pepper seasonings.
3. When the butter is melted, beginning to brown, and the pan is slightly smoking, gently add salmon. Sear for 2-3 mins. Salmon should be slightly charred after flipping.
4. Next, place Salmon and sliced lemons in a lightly greased oven-safe dish. Broil on high in the center rack for 8-10 mins until cooked through. Splash with lemon juice immediately once removed.
5. Serve with roasted veggies.

NOTE:

Number of Servings: 2-4

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Personal Notes: PRO TIP: This method is called pan-searing. Make sure your butter begins to brown before adding Salmon. This will give the salmon that charred seasoned coating.
