FOOD FIGHT FRIDAY{}CAJUN BLACKENED SALMON
Hello @fff chefs, it's Friday and I am at back at home for awhile. This has been a busy week, but I am trying to get back into the swing of things. I had trouble deciding what to cook for @fff since I am still tried from traveling. I saw a picture of a piece of blackened salmon in a magazine and decided that was it.
I love cajun seasoning, so I decided to use it to blackened my salmon. This went right along with the red beans and rice that I was cooking for my husband. Of course when I cook beans, I cook cornbread to accompany the meal, which also included a pot of mustard greens.
I was totally out of cajun seasoning so I had to make a batch before I could get started on my meal. I washed the salmon and dried it off with a paper towel.
Next, I rub the seasoning all over the salmon by hand to ensure each inch was covered. I prepared my cast iron skillet by heating it up over medium high heat and adding olive oil and ghee. When the skillet was ready, I added the salmon and watched it sizzle in the oil and ghee.
When the salmon was done, I removed it from the skillet. I threw a package of string-beans in the same skillet that I had cooked the salmon. There was already ghee and olive oil in the pan so I added a little season all and was good to go.
My husband had red beans & rice, mustard greens, and cornbread. I had red beans & rice, string-beans, salmon, and cornbread. I did a lot of cooking today, but it was all very good and we both enjoyed our dinners.
Bon Appetite !!!
Salmon plus vegan, perfect! Yummy

Thank you @anggreklestari, sometimes I get confused as to what I can use on each diet.
I’ll take one of your plate over your husband’s please. 😋. That’s one thing I miss about the states… wild Alaskan salmon… soooo good. I’ve been spoiled with the amount of fresh mahi mahi here though. Happy food fight @paleotwist!
Thank you puravidaville, me too. My plate was lot better than his. He was still looking for something to eat after dinner. I was just too tired to cook a dessert after cooking his meal and mine.
It’s difficult to be on different diets sometimes. When Dandays and I were eating totally different it made double the work for me to cook dinner. Grocery shopping also gets tough. Sometimes I just have to accept that he can make himself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and that’s completely fine. At least I make his peanut butter 🤷🏼♀️

You know what iheart most about salmon? Everything. Ok, maybe the fishing trips I used to go on with my grandfather when I was a young kid, approximately age 7-13. Those are my happiest childhood memories. He would take me frowning off the coast of California, near Oregon in a fishing town, which is now a city: Trinidad.
Well, that and everything between the S and the N! 😉
Dang you look good in that belt like “ka’pow!”
I love blackened anything, fish, steak, and chicken.
This dish looks fabulous, and salmon is #1 on my list of fish.
