Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Lemon
Enjoy a delightful twist on a classic favorite – perfectly pan seared salmon with a fragrant herb crust and a bright splash of lemon. This dish marries robust flavors with delicate freshness for a truly satisfying meal that’s both heart-healthy and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley and thyme. Zest half a lemon and mix the zest into the herbs.
Lightly coat the salmon with olive oil and press the herb and lemon zest mixture onto the top side of the fillet to form a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil.
Place the salmon crust side down in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until golden.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through but remains moist.
Squeeze a little lemon juice over the salmon before serving for an added burst of brightness.
