Fishy Friday - Cajun Spiced Salmon

Seeing that today is Good Friday and that Friday is a traditional day to have fish, I said it was only fitting of me to post a recipe on it. 


Now student DON'T run away because you see FISH!!! Believe me once you go Cajun style you'll NEVER go back.  Packed with omega 3 (good for skin, eyes and overall brain function), protein and loads of other nutritional benefits its a meal you can pat yourself on the back for having once a week!! 


You can either buy it frozen or fresh depending on your money status but either way it works really reasonable in comparison of paying a whopping €14 for it dinning out! Not only that it takes less than 10 mins to complete :0 Lastly, if you are feeling like a bit more than a side salad team it with some couscous and steamed vegetables. :) 

Ingredients:


1 Salmon cutlet


Mixed peppers thinly sliced


Handful of Iceberg lettuce


1 Tomato chopped


2 tbps of Cajun Spices

COOKING

1. Sprinkle the Cajun spices over your Salmon 
2. Grill it under a medium heat for 5-10 mins
3. Prepare your salad
4. Serve up your salmon on a plate with your side salad

Snubbing it UP!

If you are cooking for the parents, holding a dinner party or so forth you can posh it up with some steamed potatoes and vegetables. Then pair this fabulousness with a zippy red wine such as a California Zinfadel.
