I tried this method I found at http://foodwishes.blogspot.com/2010/09/cast-iron-salmon-searing-pleasure.html
Simply covered the salmon in a little canola oil and salt & pepper. Put a cast iron pan right into the hot coals and you're ready to sear.
This turned out so good! Crispy outer and creamy inner. Served with cilantro lime aioli and a bottle of cab.
