INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Mixed Dried Herbs
1/2 Lemon
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the salmon fillet under cool water and pat dry with paper towels.
Season the salmon lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the mixed dried herbs and a bit of lemon zest obtained from half a lemon.
Brush the salmon evenly with the herbed olive oil mixture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the crust forms.
Flip the salmon gently and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is just cooked through.
Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the salmon before removing it from the skillet.
Plate the salmon and garnish with an additional lemon wedge if desired. Serve warm.
