Recipe Ingredients

1 1/2 teaspoons	7.5ml	Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Paprika
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Cayenne
1 teaspoon	5ml	Garlic - minced
1 tablespoon	15ml	Onion - minced
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Crumbled dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
1 tablespoon	15ml	Olive oil
2		Salmon steaks each about 1" thick
1 tablespoon	15ml	Unsalted butter

Recipe Instructions

In a bowl stir together the black pepper, the paprika, the cayenne, the garlic, the onion, the thyme, the salt, and the oil until the mixture forms a stiff paste. Pat the paste onto both sides of each salmon steak.

Heat an oiled ridged grill pan over moderately high heat until it is smoking and in it saute the salmon for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through.

While the salmon is cooking, in a small skillet cook the butter over moderate heat, swirling the skillet, until it

is dark brown, but do not let it burn. Transfer the salmon to heated plates and pour the butter over it.
