This is perfect for an easy and quick spicy dinner and lunch. The mix of spices gives the salmon a black appearance and packed it with a spicy taste.

A simple spice mix that is perfect even for stir-frying vegetables. You can maybe try it in different recipes, I haven’t yet, and I am sure it’ll be super useful! Make sure to double the spices and store in a jar for later use. Nothing beats the feeling of having your own spice blend at hand.

I love this blackened salmon alongside any veggies or with rice. An excellent date night meal with a bottle of wine. This impressive dish is sure to impress everyone!
