Salmon & Seasoning
  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets skin on or off
  • 1 tsp salt to taste
  • 1 tsp black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for searing
Garlic Butter Glaze
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter
  • 4-5 cloves minced garlic

Equipment

  • Large Skillet or Cast Iron Pan

Method
 

  1. Remove salmon from the fridge 15 minutes prior to cooking. Pat dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon in the pan (skin-side up first if skinless, skin-side down if skin-on).
  3. Sear for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp 145°F). Remove from pan and set aside.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Whisk in honey, lemon juice, and soy sauce. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
