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.

It was absolutely gorgeous! Perfect recipe, garlicky and tender. Did it with rice and asparagus. I recommend this recipe!
