Restaurant-Style Pan Seared Salmon


Restaurant-quality pan seared salmon—crisp on top and just barely cooked in the center—is easy to make at home.

Ingredients:
  • Salmon fillets (skin-on)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Butter
  • Garlic
  • Fresh parsley
Instructions:
  1. Dry the salmon fillets well with paper towels. 
  2. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
  4. Place the fillets skin-side down and sear for about 6-8 minutes (depending on thickness).
  5. Flip once the flesh has lightened about 3/4 of the way up the fish.
  6. Sear for another 1-2 minutes.
  7. Add butter, garlic, parsley, and lemon juice to the pan, stirring until the butter browns slightly.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy.
