Mustard and Brown Sugar Salmon (or pork)

Mustard and Brown Sugar Salmon (or pork)

2 tbsp dark brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp mustard powder
4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), skin removed
1 tsp olive oil

Directions
1. Stir together sugar, salt, pepper, cumin, and mustard in small bowl.
2. Press sugar mixture evenly onto fish.
3. Heat oil in large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
4. When hot, place fish in pan. Cook until rub dissolves and darkens slightly (being careful not to burn), about 4 minutes. Flip fish and cook to medium doneness, about 1 minute.

I think this recipe is also great on pork but of course the cooking process is different. I would brown both sides of the pork chop then stick the cast iron skillet in the oven to complete cooking.
