Combine butter, honey, and 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning in a small bowl and whip with a fork until combined and ingredients are well incorporated. Set aside.
1
Pat salmon filets dry with paper towels. I like leaving the skin side intact. Sprinkle about ½ teaspoon of cajun seasoning over the top of each filet. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add olive oil to the hot pan to heat, then place filets in the hot oil, skin side down first. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked to your liking.

Once cooked, transfer salmon to a plate, and top with a heaping tablespoon of cajun honey butter. Option to top with fresh chopped herbs and a squeeze of lemon.
