I love a meal that doesn’t require a great deal of preparation, but rather a simple and clean presentation and lots of flavor, like this blackened salmon recipe. Food never has to be complicated especially if it is something you are preparing during your busy work week. I decided to throw together a recipe that I saw on foodnetwork.com. This is such a simple and quick meal, its another meal to impress a dinner guest.
Anyone can relate to the need to have a good meal, but at the same time having demanding family, work etc. I have added this to my go to meals to keep it healthy and tasty.

Salmon fillets and mise en place

Cauliflower puree prep
To make the puree simply steam a head of cauliflower with 3 whole cloves of garlic. Once the vegetable is fully cooked through, transfer it and the garlic cloves to the blender, and add about 2 Tablespoons of ghee and season with salt and white pepper. Yep, that easy
Blackening spices: cayenne, paprika, salt, and fresh oregano lemon zest and thyme
Mix all of your ingredients to create the blackening seasoning
Coat only the flesh side with the blackening seasoning

Hot Canola Oil flesh side down first

Perfect medium rare salmon
When I tell you this is a filling healthy and simple meal. You will not feel deprived of flavor for eating this hearty healthy meal. I served my salmon and cauliflower puree with sautéed kale.
Great tip!
