Pan Fried Salmon Fillet

Salmons are expensive for a good reason. It cooks fast, you only need salt and pepper to season it and a slice of lemon to get the rich juicy taste of  these magical fish that swims upstream.

Use a fillet knife if available. Lie salmon fillet on chopping board skin side down.

Sliced slanting 1 inch thick each. About 150grams per portion.

Season sliced salmon fillet with fine salt and freshly grounded black pepper.
