Ingredients

3 tablespoons - avocado oil
4 - wild salmon filets
1 tbsp - blackened seasoning
⅛ - Lime wedges and fresh parsley

Instructions

Blot each salmon filet dry. Using 1 tablespoon of the oil, drizzle oil over the top of the filets.
Sprinkle blackened seasoning evenly over the top of the fish and let stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Place the salmon fillets top side down in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until nicely charred and it releases easily from the pan.
Flip the salmon and cook an additional 2-3 minutes until the fat begins to render and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with lime and parsley if desired and enjoy!
