Grilled Cajun Salmon

Today was a beautiful day! The perfect day to grill out. I happened to have some salmon in the freezer that I had bought on sale a while back, and we decided to throw it on the grill for dinner tonight. It turned out great!! Here's how we cooked it...

Ingredients:
2 salmon fillets
1/2 tbsp paprika
1/2 tbsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tbsp black pepper
a bit of minced garlic
1/2 tbsp dried oregano
olive oil for drizzling

Instructions:
1. Mix together all ingredients except salmon and oil.
2. Spread the rub over over the salmon fillets, coating both sides well. Let sit for 1-2 hours to enhance flavor.
3. Heat grill on low-medium low heat. Drizzle olive oil over each side of the salmon.
4. Grill 5 minutes on each side until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Enjoy! We had it with parmesan rice and steamed vegetables. Yum!
