1/4 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. dried thyme

Instructions
To make the cajun seasoning, combine the paprika, chili powder, cumin, sea salt, dried oregano, dried thyme, and garlic powder in a small mixing bowl.
Season the salmon liberally with the cajun seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned salmon to the hot pan, and cook until it becomes deeply golden brown and slightly blackened before flipping and repeating for the other side, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
To make the avocado salsa, combine the avocados, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and sea salt in a mixing bowl until combined. Set aside.
Top the salmon with the avocado salsa and serve.
