Ingredients
- 2 salmon see note 1, fillets
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup - see note 2
- 4 lices prosciutto - see note 3
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 425ºF/220ºC.
- Brush each salmon fillet with the maple syrup then season with salt and pepper. Repeat on the underside of the salmon.
- Lay two slices of prosciutto out on a board, making sure they are overlapping. Place the salmon on the prosciutto top side down and fold the prosciutto over to cover the salmon. Repeat with the second fillet.
- Place a cast iron skillet or oven proof frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Once the pan is hot, carefully place the salmon in the pan, seam side down.
- Cook the salmon for 1 minute then carefully flip and cook for another minute on the top side.
- Flip the salmon again and place it in the hot oven for 4-5 minutes (see note 4)
Notes
- It is best to use skin off fillets for this recipe as the salmon is wrapped so any skin wouldn't have a chance to crisp up.
- Use real maple syrup not the fake flavored kind.
- You can use serrano ham instead of the prosciutto. Or thin cut bacon would also work here.
- The salmon doesn't take long to cook, 4 minutes will give you a rare center, whilst 5 minutes will give you a flakier fish,
