Cajun spice blend or blackened redfish seasoning 1/2 med. size green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced 1/2 med. size red or yellow bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced Arrange steaks side by side but in opposite directions in a baking dish; press thin belly flaps together, against other steak. (If cooking 4 steaks, arrange in a circle with belly flaps toward the center of the dish.) Rub the top of each steak with 1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 tsp. lemon juice, then sprinkle and distribute or rub with 1/8 tsp. spice blend. Sprinkle and distribute peppers over fish in center of the pan. Cover dish tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on HIGH (100% power) until flesh is nearly opaque, 5 1/2 to 6 mins. (Cook one steak 3 1/2 to 4 mins.; 4 steaks about 7 mins.) Let salmon stand, still covered (puncture plastic wrap if tightly sealed), 1 to 2 mins. longer.
