CAJUN BLACKENED SALMON WITH PUREED PEAS AND DOOR STOP FRIES



Cajun Blackened Salmon With Pureed Peas and Door Stop Fries image

Here is a quick, easy recipe that tastes great. You can make Cajun spice by grinding your own herbs and spices, but why fuss when you can buy already blended Cajun spice, that tastes great, I use Schwartz brand and prefer this one to others I have tried.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

olive oil
4 salmon fillets (about 150g each fillet)
4 teaspoons cajun spices (I allow for a teaspoon for each, but add more or less depending on desired spice level, I always use)
1 (500 g) frozen peas
100 g butter
salt and pepper (If using salted butter you won't need extra salt.)
potato (As many chips as you want... I looovvee big fat chips.)

Steps:

  • Peel and cut potatoes into very fat chips, heat some oil in a large frying pan and fry chips until cooked and crisp, turning constantly, to brown on all sides. Alternatively fry in a chip fryer if you have one.
  • Coat salmon with Cajun seasoning, heat a small amount of oil in a pan, place salmon skin side down and fry for 4-5 minutes, turn and fry for a further 4-5 Min's. Cooking times will vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.
  • Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, add peas and boil for about 5 Min's. Drain and puree peas with butter, salt and pepper in a food processor or blender.
  • To serve: Divide puree mix between 4 plates, place salmon on top, and stack chips on top of each other.

Wonderful and light way to make cajun blackened chicken! I serve it with dirty rice and veggies. It is also excellent the next day cold with light mayo, lettuce, and tomato on pita bread! If you want to lower the heat, omit the cayenne! This chicken is delicious!

CAJUN BLACKENED SALMON

Yet another recipe from my mother-in-law, who is probably the best cook that I personally know. This is, hands down, our favourite way to eat salmon in our house - and we eat a lot of it! The spice portion can be doubled and stored for later - I typically double or triple the recipe and store it in an airtight jar so that it is available whenever I want it.

THE BEST CAJUN BLACKENED SALMON EVER.



The Best Cajun Blackened Salmon Ever. image

We eat a lot of salmon (at least once a week) and this is by far my favorite way of preparing it. It's really quite simple, and the end result is so delicious. The sweetness of the apple juice/white wine combined with the spiciness of the Cajun seasoning is amazing. The blackened texture of the fish is also great. Not your typical boring salmon!

Provided by likeamystic

Categories     Cajun

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb salmon fillet
cajun's choice blackening seasoning (or any Cajun blackened seasoning)
1/2 cup apple juice or 1/2 cup a sweet white wine
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 lemon

Steps:

  • Melt butter over medium high heat. Stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons (depending on how spicy you like it) of Cajun's Choice Blackened Seasoning and garlic. Stir constantly for 1 minute to blend flavors. Slow the cooking of the butter and the garlic by adding wine. Stir constantly and cook for 1 minute. Add fish fillets and cook until fish flakes apart. Squeeze lemon over fish and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh salmon: Fresh salmon will have a more vibrant color and firmer texture than frozen salmon. If you are using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Make sure the salmon is dry before cooking: Pat the salmon dry with paper towels before cooking to help prevent the skin from sticking to the pan.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the salmon from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you are cooking multiple pieces of salmon, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the salmon over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the salmon while keeping the inside moist.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to not overcook it. Cook the salmon until it is just opaque in the center, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Let the salmon rest before serving: This will help to prevent the salmon from drying out.

Conclusion:

This Cajun blackened salmon with pureed peas and door-stop fries is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the pureed peas and door-stop fries are a great complement. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
