Instructions

1
In a bowl, add all dry spices and mix together to combine.
2
Brush olive oil liberally over each fillet, then season with spice mix, allow to rest for at least 15 minutes for spices to penetrate salmon.
3
Preheat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat, add oil and sear fillets flesh side down, skin side up.
4
Cooking salmon for 5 to 6 minutes, salmon should almost be fully cooked before flipping it.

Cook a few more minutes until internal temperature reaches at least 150ºF. Allow to rest and season with more spice mix to taste.

Chef's Note: I like to serve this with a side of roasted broccoli using same merguez spice blend to season it.
