Thank you for this excellent recipe. The baking temperature and time were perfect. The spice mix is great; I tweaked it slightly (added thyme, left out the onion powder because I didn’t have it, boosted the garlic powder and black pepper a bit, and dropped the cayenne).

Do you remove the skin prior to baking or no?

I was looking for an alternative to pan frying b/c we don’t have an external range vent. Made the salmon last night and served it with roasted sweet potatoes, broccoli and yellow onion. Coated the side with a EVOO, garlic and onion powder, and cracked blacked pepper. Simply put, your spice mix and cooking method are spot on. We thoroughly enjoyed the blackened salmon. Will coat chicken and other seafood with your mix recipe. Thank you.

I just tried this recipe and it came out PERFECT!!! Super yummy and the salmon was just as flaky as I wanted it. It’s definitely one of my favs now and I like the seasoning blend so much I’m going to make some tilapia with it too.

What a great idea. I usually blacken mine the traditional way in a skillet on the stove, but cleaning up is a big chore, and the fumes are not fun either. Your spices are on the money! I’ll try this today. No parchment parer here, so hopefully using butter or oil on the baking sheet will suffice.

I agree, this is a great tasting, simple healthy dish. I usually serve it up with an oven baked sweet potato (much tastier than nuking it in the microwave) drizzled w/ a little butter, and a large salad of organic ingredients topped with cut up apples and almonds. Thanks Nicole!

What a great recipe! Added roasted garlic powder, Old Bay, coriander, and a touch of cumin because we like spice, and it came out great. I will never make blackened salmon in a cast iron skillet again.
