Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Salmon with Lemon
Savor the delightful flavors of a crisp herb crust on a perfectly pan-seared salmon fillet, accented with a refreshing squeeze of lemon. This dish is both light and satisfying, ideal for a nutritious dinner that complements an active lifestyle.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 whole Lemon (juiced)
1 tsp Dried Dill
1 tsp Dried Parsley
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the dried dill, dried parsley, and lemon zest (optional, using a microplane from the quarter lemon) to create the herb crust.
Lightly coat the salmon with olive oil, then press the herb mixture onto the flesh side of the salmon fillet.
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 is golden and crispy.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through but still moist.
Finish by squeezing fresh lemon juice from the quarter lemon onto the salmon before serving.
