Cup of Yum
Prepare the Smoky Broiled Salmon:
- Place the oven on the high broil setting and move one of the racks to the top rung.
- In a small bowl, combine all of the seasonings and sea salt and stir well. Place salmon fillet in a casserole dish or on a baking sheet. Drizzle the salmon fillet with olive oil and use your hands to spread it over the full surface of the flesh. Sprinkle the seasoning over the fish. (Note: if you have the time and forethought, marinate the salmon in the dry rub and oil for 1 to 4 hours).
- Place salmon under the broiler on the top shelf and broil until golden-brown and crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes (note: fillets that are thicker than 1 inch may require more time), or until fish has reached desired doneness. For a rare center, cook 6 to 8 minutes.
- Serve salmon with peach-avocado salsa and choice of side dishes.
