Perfectly balanced for a light yet satisfying meal, each bite delivers tender, flaky salmon enhanced by the brightness of lemon and the earthiness of parsley and dill.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Fresh Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Finely mince the garlic and roughly chop the fresh parsley and dill. Zest the lemon and then cut it in half.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped parsley, dill, and lemon zest.
Lightly press the herb mixture onto the top side of the salmon, ensuring a thin, even crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, place the salmon, herb-side down, in the skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until the crust is golden.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and flakes easily.
Just before removing from heat, squeeze half of the lemon over the salmon for a burst of fresh acidity.
Serve immediately with an extra lemon wedge on the side.
