Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons finely ground coffee (you can use your favorite blend)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

How To Make

  1. Mix the Spices: In a small bowl, combine the ground coffee, brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
  2. Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. This helps the coffee mixture stick better.
  3. Coat the Salmon: Rub the coffee spice blend all over the salmon fillets. Make sure each piece is evenly coated.
  4. Heat the Pan: Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat.
  5. Cook the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in the hot skillet, skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side. The salmon should be crispy on the outside and cooked through but still moist on the inside.
  6. Serve: Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!

This Coffee-Crusted Salmon is a great way to spice up your meal routine. The coffee gives it a unique flavor, and it’s easy to make. Give it a try and see how you like it!
