Crispy Pan-Fried Cajun Salmon

Andres Mendez

344 reviews

Salmon is pan-fried at high heat to ensure a nice, crispy finish on the outside but a moist and tender inside. Chef Andres cooks the salmon with a Cajun seasoning that's full of flavor and packs a spicy punch. The medium level of heat goes perfectly with fresh avocado sauce and a refreshing cucumber salsa to cool everything off.

The salmon was flavorful and moist, cooked perfectly. I enjoyed the cucumbers as a light side since I am trying to stick to a low carb menu.

So when I first opened it I wasn't sure what I was going to think. It was good though. The cucumbers were amazing! Salmon was okay a little over cooked but that could have been me leaving it in too long. I would order again.
