Blackened Herb Salmon:

1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets (bones removed)
1 Tbsp. olive oil
kosher salt
black pepper
dried Italian seasoning
dried dill weed
Garlic powder
Olive oil non-stick spray


1.Cover a broiler pan with aluminum foil and place fish on it.
2.Brush fish with olive oil, coating sides too.
3.Sprinkle fish with salt, pepper, herbs and garlic powder (I’ve found they adhere best to the fish if I do it in that order, but I guess it’s not that critical)
4.Spray top of fish with the non-stick spray. It helps everything adhere to the fish and gives a little added protection to the herbs under the broiler.
5.Broil 12-14 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillet. Top should be dark, sizzly and crispy!

Oops...sorry no pics, ate it too fast. It came out looking good. I was looking for some low fat recipe for salmon since I am trying to lose weight, and I couldn't believe I found something on TW. My mom tried it, and she even saved the recipe in her little collection. Blackened is the way to go! The crazy thing about the recipe is that it only took 13ish minutes, very cool! Thanks neon.
