INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon (juice and zest)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme (chopped)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix the chopped parsley, thyme, and the zest of half a lemon.
Brush the salmon lightly with olive oil and press the herb mixture onto the top of the fillet to create a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil.
Place the salmon, herb side down, in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a crisp crust forms.
Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon before serving to add brightness and enhanced flavor.
