Ingredients

  • 4 Salmon fillets skinless
  • 100 g Butter
  • 6 Cloves of garlic chopped
  • ½ Lemon juiced
  • 10 g Parsley chopped

Instructions

  • If your salmon still has the skin on, then remove it using a sharp knife. Season each fillet with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat some cooking oil, and about 10g of butter in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat. Once the oil and butter are hot, place the salmon fillets in the pan presentation side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, until it’s golden brown.
  • Flip them over and continue to cook for a few more minutes.
  • Turn the heat down to a medium, then add the remaining butter. Once it melts, add in the garlic, and use a spoon to spread it throughout the pan.
  • Cook for a further minute, basting the salmon in the garlicky butter as you go.
  • Add in the lemon juice and chopped parsley and swirl together.
  • Dish up the salmon and spoon over some garlic butter. I served this one with some roasted new potatoes and salad.
