How to make Blackened salmon with pineapple salsa

1. Preheat the oven to 190°C (fan) or 200°C (conventional).

2. In a bowl, combine the blackening seasoning by mixing together the paprika, garlic granules, thyme, cayenne, and black pepper.

3. Rub the seasoning onto all sides of the salmon.

4. Coat a baking tray with coconut oil spray, then place the seasoned salmon on the tray. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the salmon is firm but not dry.
