Instructions
- Thaw salmon thoroughly, if using frozen. Pat dry on both sides with paper towels.
- Heat the oil in a cast iron or other heavy duty skillet over medium-high heat. Season salmon on both sides with the salt and pepper. Sprinkle with half of the flour on one side. Lay the salmon floured side down in the pan, skin side up if your fillets have skin on them, then sprinkle remaining flour on top.
- Cook for 4 minutes on each side without moving. Once seared, the salmon should easily release from the pan to be flipped.
