Mixed together with butter and honey, the spices take on another dimension of flavor, both a little hot and a little sweet, and so creamy and delicious when melted on the grilled salmon. I think you’ll agree this recipe is a keeper!

Ingredients
4 Salmon filets
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 Tablespoons honey
-
1 tablespoons of Voodoo Cajun
Directions
Use an electric hand mixer to whip butter for 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add honey and cream together until smooth. Mix in 1 tablespoon of the cajun seasoning.
Pat salmon fillets dry on both sides with a paper towel. Rub all over with oil, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook salmon on a preheated grill or grill pan for 6-8 minutes on each side until opaque and flaky.
Turn off the grill (or stove if using a grill pan) and place a generous dollop of cajun honey butter on top of each fillet.
Allow to melt for about 30 seconds, then use the back of a spoon to spread the butter all over the the top of the salmon. Flip, and repeat on the other side.
