COOK TIME 10 MINS
Recipe Ingredients:
| 1 tsp smoked paprika |
| 1 tsp cayenne pepper |
| 1 tsp garlic powder |
| 1/2 tsp dried thyme |
| 1 tsp soft light brown sugar |
| 1/2 tsp salt |
| 5.5 oz skinless salmon fillets, about 150 g each |
| 2 tbsp olive oil |
| Thinly sliced onion, avocado and cherry tomato salad, to serve |
| You will also need a grill, clingfilm and foil |
Recipe Methods:
Step 1: Combine the spices, thyme, sugar, and salt in a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder. Grind to a fine powder.
Step 2: Rub the mixture over both sides of the fish, cover with cling film, and leave to rest in the fridge while you prepare the grill.
Step 3: Preheat the grill on its highest setting and line a grill pan with foil. Brush the fish with a little oil on both sides, being careful not to dislodge the spice rub. Grill for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on its thickness.
Step 4: Once done, serve the grilled salmon on a plate with an onion, avocado and cherry tomato salad.
Enjoy!
