Ingredients
- 3 fillets salmon
- 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil or olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1 teaspoon of pepper
- ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper more or less to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat oil in a frying pan on medium high heat.
- Sprinkle the fillets of salmon evenly with spices on both sides.
- Place fillets into preheated pan and cook on the first side until it is cooked about half way through, about 4-5 minutes).
- Then turn and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
- ENJOY!!
Notes
- Do not to overcook your salmon. It is done when it flakes easily, which is typically takes about 4-5 minutes per side for the average salmon fillet thickness.
- There is no need to remove the skin before cooking the salmon fillets. Place the skin side down in the pan for the first 4-5 minutes of cooking.
- Serve salmon with rice, pasta or roasted potatoes. Add a simple vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, spinach or zucchini.
- Add additions flavors to the finished product. I often top it with a mixture of soy sauce and ginger paste for an Asian flavored dish.
