Ingredients

  • 6 salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • sea salt to taste
  • olive oil spray
  • avocado-based sauce for serving

Equipment

  • grill

Directions

  • Leaving the skin on the salmon, trim the fillets to even sizes and thicknesses. This will help for even grilling. Pat any additional moisture away with a paper towel. 
  • Season the flesh evenly with blackening seasoning, garlic, and salt.
  • Preheat a grill or griddle to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the salmon on the grill skin side down; let cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Lightly spray the top of the fish with oil. Turn the salmon with a spatula. Sprinkle again with the blackening rub, garlic, and salt.
  • Finally, flip one more time to the original side. Grill just long enough to put a small char on the remaining flesh, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Serve the blackened salmon with an avocado-based sauce.
