🍽️ How to Make Cajun Honey Butter Salmon
1. Prepare the Cajun Seasoning
In a bowl, combine all Cajun seasoning ingredients and mix well.
2. Whip the Honey Butter
Using an electric hand mixer, beat the butter for about 2 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy.
Add the honey and continue mixing until smooth.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of the Cajun seasoning (store the remaining blend in an airtight container for up to 3 months).
3. Prep the Salmon
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel to ensure they sear properly.
Rub each fillet with a bit of oil, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Grill the Salmon
Preheat a grill or grill pan.
Cook the fillets for 6–8 minutes per side, or until the salmon is opaque and has a crispy crust. 🔥
5. Glaze with Cajun Honey Butter
After turning off the heat, spread a generous amount of the Cajun Honey Butter over each fillet.
Let it melt for about 30 seconds, then use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.
Flip the fillet and repeat on the other side.
6. Serve and Garnish
Top with chopped cilantro or parsley if desired 🌿.
Serve immediately and enjoy the spicy-sweet perfection on your plate.
This Cajun Honey Butter Salmon brings together the comforting richness of butter, the natural sweetness of honey, and the boldness of Cajun spices—all in one irresistible dish. Perfectly seared and generously glazed, it’s a feast that looks as good as it tastes. 🍴✨
