Captain Jack’s Salmon Dry Rub
Salmon Fillets with Captain Jack’s Salmon Dry Rub
Salmon is so quick and easy to prepare and today I’m dressing it up a little with this delicious mix of dried herbs and spices that compliment the salmon beautifully. This recipe makes 6 tablespoons, enough to season six 1 1/2 pound salmon fillets.
Ingredients
- 1-½ tablespoon brown sugar light or dark
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
- 1-½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1-½ teaspoon hungarian paprika not smoked
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 ½ teaspoon dried dill
- ½ teaspoons ground coriander
- ½ teaspoons ground cumin
- olive oil light coating
Instructions
Mix Rub Ingredients
- Place all spice ingredients in a bowl and whisk together well, being sure to break up brown sugar clumps.
- Transfer dry rub to an airtight container and store in a cool dry place.
Cook Salmon
- Preheat oven to 425ºF.
- Place a salmon fillet, skin side down, in a baking dish or on a foil-lined sheet pan sprayed with nonstick spray (or use nonstick foil).
- Brush top of salmon with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with dry rub (I used about 1 tablespoon for a 1 1/2-pound fillet).
- Roast uncovered in center of the oven until cooked through and salmon flakes easily (approximately 10 minutes per inch of thickness).
- The FDA suggests salmon is safe to eat when it reaches 145ºF.
