Tips:

  • Select the right salmon fillet: Choose a fresh, firm fillet with a bright orange color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have any brown spots.
  • Pat the salmon dry: Before cooking, use a paper towel to pat the salmon fillet dry. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan and will also help the skin to crisp up.
  • Use a good quality pan: A heavy-bottomed pan is best for searing salmon. It will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the fish from sticking.
  • Heat the pan over medium-high heat: Before adding the salmon to the pan, make sure the pan is hot enough. This will help to create a nice sear on the fish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing salmon, it's important not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side: Sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through. You can check the salmon is done cooking by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the flesh flakes easily, the salmon is cooked.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Once the salmon is cooked, serve it immediately. Salmon is best enjoyed when it is hot and flaky.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared salmon with dill sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy skin, tender flesh, and flavorful dill sauce, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
