Method
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a pan until hot.
- Place the salmon in the pan, skin side down, and fry for 3 minutes until crisp.
- Turn the salmon over and cook for 2 minutes until almost cooked through.
Tips for making pan fried salmon fillet:
To check salmon is cooked perfectly, simply press down on the top of the fillet with your finger or a fork. The salmon’s flesh should flake and fall apart easily. Whilst the white lines (fish fat) is another indicator that it’s fully cooked.
