chili rubbed salmon

{Salmon is by far my favorite type of fish.   Probably due to the fact that it is one of the only types of fish I have been brave enough to try!  ha!!  Noah absolutely loves this salmon although he refers to it as steak.  We had it for dinner last week and he kept saying,  " Oh, I like this steak!" over and over.

For the rub you will only need a few seasonings that you most likely already have in your pantry.  My kind of recipe!

Chili Rub:
1 1/2 tablespoons of chili powder
1/2 teaspoon of oregano
1/4 teaspoon of salt
*the Hubs likes to add a dash of Emeril's essence in when I am not looking.  And I have to admit it does compliment the fish quite nicely.

 2 salmon fillets {about a half a pound per serving}

Combine seasonings in a bowl and mix together.  Place your salmon on foil or on a grill pan skin side down.  Gently rub the seasoning mixture on the top side of salmon and coat completely.

If the weather is nice we usely grill our salmon for about eight to fifteen minutes.  We have also baked it in the oven at 375 degrees for about ten to fifteen minutes.  In all honesty I think the results are about the same.  Either way, cook until the fish flakes when touched with a fork or to desired doneness.

Enjoy!!
