📝 Preparation Steps
1
Using a sharp knife, score skin-side of salmon filet 2-3 times, about 1-inch apart, and without slashing into flesh. Pat filets dry and season on all sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
2
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place salmon filets skin-side down in a single layer and cook until very dark brown, about 5 to ⏱️ 7 minutes.
3
Flip salmon and cook until very dark brown and fish registers 145 degrees on a digital thermometer, about ⏱️ 5 minutes more. Serve with lemon wedges.
