Ingredients
- 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill - see note 1
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano - see note 1
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon
- 4 fresh salmon fillets - see note 2
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Mix the extra virgin olive together with the black pepper, the chopped fresh dill, and fresh oregano together in a non-metallic bowl. Stir well then add in the zest and juice of the lemon.
- Place the salmon fillets into the marinade and turn them to coat. Set them aside in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours.
- Once the salmon has marinated, place a heavy paced frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat and allow it to get hot.
- Season the salmon fillets with the salt and then place the salmon presentation side down into the pan.
- Cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. Carefully flip the salmon and cook for a further 3 minutes.
Notes
- You can use dried herbs in place of the fresh, just use 2 teaspoons of each instead.
- We prefer this dish with skin off salmon fillets because the marinade stops the skin from crisping up and soggy fish skin is gross!
