Spicy Salmon Fillets Recipe (+)

Directions

Mix the cornmeal or flour (use cornmeal for a gluten-free version), paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano on a plate. Reserve half of the seasoning mixture; use the other half to pat onto one side of each fillet.
Heat the oil or butter (or mixture of the two) in skillet large enough to hold the fillets in a single layer.
Place the fillets, seasoned side down, into the pan.
Pat the remaining seasoning onto the top side of each fillet.
Allow a cooking time of 8 minutes for each inch of thickness. Carefully turn the fillets when half cooked.
Remove the fillets from the pan when the fish becomes opaque. Serve hot.
