Introduction

This is my fast, easy method to serve fresh salmon. Sometimes I keep it simple with salt & pepper. Other times, I might use lemon pepper, herbs...use your imagination. What my family loves about this method, is that the salmon turns out moist with a crispy, crunchy outside.

Ingredients

    4-5 oz Fresh salmon filet, skin on
    1 Tbsp. olive oil
    Kosher salt & pepper (or whatever seasoning you like)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425F
Wash the fish, and pat it completely dry.
On the skin side, cut a few small slits.
Season the fish and rub olive oil over the salmon.
Preheat an oven proof skillet (I use a heavy botto skillet) until it is screaming hot.
Add the fish to the pan, skin side up.
Sear, without moving around, for 2-3 minutes.
Turn the salmon over for 1 minute and then put into the oven and roast for about 5 minutes.

Serve. The salmon should be moist and delicious.
