Spicy Grilled Salmon Steaks with Black Butter

   In a bowl stir together the black pepper, the paprika, the cayenne, the garlic, the onion, the thyme, the salt, and the oil until the mixture forms a stiff paste.

2. 2

   Pat the paste onto both sides of each salmon steak.

3. 3

   Heat an oiled ridged grill pan over moderately high heat until it is smoking and in it saute the salmon for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through.

4. 4

   While the salmon is cooking, in a small skillet cook the butter over moderate heat, swirling the skillet, until it is dark brown, but do not let it burn.

5. 5

   Transfer the salmon to heated plates and pour the butter over it.
