Blackened Salmon
For those of you who didn’t know, I am now am the contributing writer for the Resident Recipe section of our monthly neighborhood magazine. With the permission of my neighbors, I will share with you their recipe and the article I submitted to the magazine.
This blackened salmon recipe appeared in our April 2012 magazine issue and was submitted by Sue, who states: “This is a family recipe and I like to serve it when all my family is over for dinner. I came up with this recipe after having Blackened Salmon at a local seafood restaurant. Their version was so delicious, I went home and was able to duplicate it in my kitchen.”
Sue’s salmon looks absolutely gorgeous, wouldn’t you agree? It tasted just as incredible as it looked…she gave me a bite to sample! I hope you enjoy. 🙂
