  Sprinkle salmon with Cajun Seasoning. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large cast-iron or other heavy oven-going skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add salmon, skin side up. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn salmon. Place skillet in a 400°F oven and roast for 4 to 6 minutes or until salmon flakes when tested with a fork. (Allow 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness of fish, including browning time.)
