1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Potatoes:
- Rub the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Pierce each potato with a fork in a few places to allow steam to escape during baking.
3. Bake Potatoes:
- Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until the skins are crisp and the insides are tender.
4. Prepare Cajun Salmon:
- While the potatoes are baking, rub the salmon fillets with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
5. Cook Salmon:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. The salmon should be flaky and opaque.
6. Assemble:
- Once the potatoes are done, make a lengthwise slit in each potato. Fluff the insides with a fork.
7. Top with Cajun Salmon:
- Place a Cajun-seasoned salmon fillet on top of each baked potato.
8. Add Toppings:
- Drizzle with sour cream and sprinkle with chopped green onions, grated cheddar cheese, and fresh parsley or cilantro. Add any additional toppings you like, such as diced tomatoes or sliced avocado.
9. Serve:
- Serve the Cajun Salmon Loaded Baked Potatoes hot, with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
This dish combines the richness of the salmon with the fluffy baked potatoes and the bold flavors of Cajun seasoning. It’s a delicious and satisfying meal that you can customize with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
