Pan-Seared Salmon with Cucumber Dill Salad
Pan-seared salmon fillet with a crispy skin served alongside a refreshing cucumber and dill salad tossed in a creamy yogurt dressing.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Salmon fillet
1 tsp Olive oil
1.5 cup Cucumber
0.25 cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh dill
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with a paper towel to ensure a crispy sear.
Season both sides of the salmon with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the salmon skin-side down in the pan and press gently with a spatula for 30 seconds to prevent curling.
Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then flip the fillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
While the salmon cooks, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped fresh dill in a medium bowl.
Stir the sliced cucumbers into the dressing along with the remaining salt and pepper until well coated.
Plate the warm salmon alongside the chilled cucumber salad and serve immediately.
