Cajun Salmon with Corn Salsa
I've never been a huge fan of seafood. That's probably a little weird since I've lived either on the coast or in Hawai'i for over 25 years of my life. In fact, I can't remember even trying salmon until about eight years ago.
However, since tasting salmon for the first time I now thoroughly enjoy it. The mild taste, the soft but not too flaky texture, and it pairs well with all the spicy seasonings that I love.
This recipe fits all my criteria for salmon - slightly spicy, paired with fresh vegetables and herbs, and super quick and easy to make. If you like this recipe it can be found in our newest recipe book that we're giving away for free. You can get 40 healthy and easy to make recipes here:

2 corn cobs, cooked (substitute frozen corn if desired)
10.5 oz. (350g) cherry tomatoes, quartered

4 salmon fillets (6oz./170g each)
2 tbsp. Cajun seasoning (Substitute with Blackened Seasoning, or something less spicy if you prefer)
2 tbsp. Olive Oil
Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Mix the Cajun seasoning with the olive oil and rub all over the salmon.
Place the salmon on a baking sheet or in an oven proof dish. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until cooked through.
Use a small knife to cut down the side of the corn cobs to remove the kernels and place them in a large bowl. Add the tomato and coriander and toss to combine.
To serve, divide the salsa between 4 serving plates. Top with the salmon and serve immediately.
