Trin for trin

1. 1

   Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

   Ca. 2 min.

   Kokkens note: Drying the salmon helps achieve a crispier skin.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

   Ca. 1 min.

3. 3

   Carefully place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet and sear for 5-7 minutes, until the skin is crispy and golden brown.

   Ca. 7 min.

   Kokkens note: Avoid moving the salmon during this step to ensure a good sear.

4. 4

   Flip the salmon fillets and reduce the heat to medium-low.

5. 5

   Add the butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, basting the salmon with the melting garlic butter, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

   Ca. 3 min.

   Kokkens note: Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your salmon.

6. 6

   Remove the skillet from the heat and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon.

   Ca. 1 min.

7. 7

   Transfer the salmon to serving plates and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

   Ca. 1 min.
