Oven-Baked Cajun Salmon & Shrimp Tray

step 1 Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with foil.
step 2 Place the salmon fillet in the center of the tray and arrange sliced onions and shrimp around it.
step 3 In a small bowl, mix olive oil, Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper.
step 4 Drizzle the seasoning mixture over the salmon, shrimp, and onions, making sure everything is evenly coated.
step 5 Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the shrimp are pink and opaque.
step 6 Remove from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice.
step 7 Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10-12 minutes or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving the seafood too long to prevent rubbery texture.
