Ingredients
Salt | 1 1/2 teaspoons |
Paprika | 1 teaspoon |
Ground cardamom | 1 teaspoon |
Ground cilantro | 1 teaspoon |
Ground black pepper | 1/2 teaspoon |
Grapeseed oil | 1/4 cup |
Maple syrup | 2 tablespoons |
Salmon fillet | 1 weighing 2 pounds, cut into 3-inch pieces |
15 minutes to prepare, 10 minutes to cook, ready in 25 minutes
This is a pretty neat way to make a relatively fancy meal with relatively little fuss.
Step 1: Grab a decent sized bowl; pour in the salt, paprika, cardamom, silantro, and ground black pepper; mix them all up, really well.
Step 2: Pour your oil and maple syrup into your dry mixture, and continue stirring it, until it’s well and evenly mixed.
Step 3: Start heating up a non-stick pan with a medium to high heat.
Step 4: Cover the pieces of salmon in the mixture you finished in the second step – make sure it’s all on evenly.
Step 5: Get the salmon on the pan, and cook it on both sides, until it cuts just nicely with a fork. Especially with any kind of fish, it’s a good idea to cut through and make sure it’s cooked throughout before serving.
That’s all there is to it. In less than a half hour, with ingredients most people have in their kitchen anyway, you’ve transformed a humble piece of salmon into something far more exotic.
