One of my favorite combinations, especially with seafood, is sweet and spicy. This is a simple homemade spice rub that is a great complement to salmon but works well with other proteins as well. Also, this meal can be made in under 20 minutes. I paired it with some simple braised kale, sprinkled with a little cotija cheese.
