Ingredients

How to make it

  • Salt, pepper, and dash of cajun seasoning on each side of salmon filets. Then pack the brown sugar on all sides of meat. In a skillet (I use cast iron), heat olive oil on medium heat, then add the salmon filets. Add about 1/2 cup water and cover and turn to med/low heat...as the water/brown sugar mixture thickens, spoon onto to salmon while cooking. Turn salmon once during cooking and cover again.

    I made this using Donnies Cajun Seasoning Mix and it was excellent! Nice balance between sweet & spicy.

    This was sooo good - and easy! I had filets that had the skin on so I only seasoned one side and didn't turn it while it cooked. I was kind of skeptical thinking it may need garlic or something else but it didn't! The Cajun seasoning balanced out the sweet of the sugar. My salmon took 8 minutes to cook and I took the cover off for two minutes to really thicken up the sauce. I went back and scraped as much sauce as I could out of the pan! It was that good! :) I added some chives just because I have so darn many right now. Added my picture, too. Thanks for this recipe! Its a keeper - easy to remember, too.

    Simple is the best when it comes to salmon. I use brown sugar and lemon pepper and smoke or use a cedar plank on the grill. Wonderful flavor. Thanks for the great post.
