Enjoy the bold flavors of the Cajun Boy Seasoning combined with the smoky goodness of grilled salmon and tender, seared scallops.
Ingredients
- 1 slab Salmon
- 10 Large scallops
- 2 tablespoons Cajun Boy Original Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Lemon
- 1 Fresh parsley
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Notes
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cajun Boy Marinade:
- In a small bowl, combine the Cajun Boy Seasoning, olive oil, and garlic pepper. Mix well and add to taste.
- Pat the salmon and scallops dry with paper towels.
- Place the salmon slab on a large plate or tray, skin side down.
- Evenly spread half of the Cajun Boy marinade over the salmon, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes at room temperature.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400-450°F or 200-230°C). Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
- Season the scallops with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Thread the seasoned scallops onto skewers, about 2-3 scallops per skewer. This makes them easier to handle on the grill.
- Sprinkle with Cajun Boy Original Seasoning.
- Place the salmon slab directly on the grill grates, skin side down. Close the grill lid and cook for about 4-5 minutes.
- Carefully flip the salmon using a wide spatula, then spread the remaining Cajun Boy marinade over the top of the salmon.
- Place the scallop skewers on the grill alongside the salmon.
- Continue grilling the salmon for another 4-5 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
- Grill the scallops for about 2-3 minutes per side or until they turn opaque and develop grill marks.
- Carefully remove the salmon and scallops from the grill.
- Transfer the salmon to a serving platter and gently slide a spatula between the salmon flesh and skin to remove it if desired.
- Garnish the dish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley.
- Serve your grilled Cajun Boy salmon and scallops hot, with your favorite side dishes like rice, vegetables, or a fresh salad.
