Cajun Honey Butter Salmon

1️⃣ Combine the ingredients for the cajun seasoning in a small bowl.

3️⃣ Pat the salmon fillets dry on all sides using a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper to taste after rubbing with oil all over.
4️⃣ Cook salmon for 6-8 minutes on each side on a preheated grill or grill pan, or until opaque and flaky.
5️⃣ After turning off the grill (or stove if using a grill pan), place a big dollop of cajun honey butter on top of each fillet.
6️⃣ Allow for about 30 seconds for the butter to melt, then spread it all over the salmon using the back of a spoon. Flip over and repeat on the other side.
