Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Salmon

Start by patting the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a nice sear.

2

Season the Fillets

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture over the salmon fillets.

3

Preheat the Skillet

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a little additional olive oil if needed.

4

Cook the Salmon

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until the skin is crispy and the salmon is cooked halfway up.

5

Flip and Finish Cooking

Carefully flip the fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Squeeze lemon juice over the top while cooking.

6

Garnish and Serve

Remove the salmon from the skillet and sprinkle with fresh dill and additional lemon zest if desired. Serve warm.
