Instructions

Pat the room-temperature salmon fillets dry with paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper. Squeeze 1–2 teaspoons of lemon juice over each fillet and rub it in.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat until hot.
Place the salmon fillets flesh side down, pressing lightly so the whole surface touches the pan. Sear without moving for 3–4 minutes, until crisp and golden.
Flip the fillets and sear the other side for 2 minutes. Then add the butter, chopped garlic and the remaining lemon juice.
Cook for a further 1–2 minutes, until the salmon reaches the doneness you like, spooning the butter and garlic over each fillet. Taste and adjust the salt, pepper and lemon.
While the salmon cooks, combine the salsa ingredients in a bowl (except the avocado).
Top each fillet with the tomato salsa and avocado slices, drizzle with the buttery sauce and serve immediately.
