Instructions

1. Take the salmon out about 20 minutes before cooking to take off the chill, then dry it well with paper towels.
2. Season both sides with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper.
3. Heat a cast iron, stainless steel or non-stick skillet over medium-high until smoking hot, then add the olive oil.
4. Place the salmon in the pan skin side down if it has skin. Cook 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook 2 minutes more.
5. Add the butter and minced garlic to the pan. As the butter melts, spoon it over the salmon and baste for 2 minutes.
6. Take the pan off the heat, squeeze in the lemon juice, and garnish with minced parsley and lemon zest.
7. Serve warm.
