Blackened Salmon with Tomato Ginger Salsa

I love blackened salmon but I wanted to put a spin on the classic Cajun seasoning. In this recipe I combined the beloved Indian spice Garam Masala with few other seasonings. I served it with a fresh tomato and ginger salsa that complemented the fish so nicely. This recipe serves 2 but can very easily be doubled or tripled!
