Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients measured and prepped, and all the equipment you need is within reach.
- Fresh Ingredients: Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor and texture.
- Choose the Right Salmon: Look for wild-caught, sustainably sourced salmon fillets or steaks that are about 1 inch thick.
- Season the Salmon Well: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A good rule of thumb is to season the salmon with salt and pepper, then add any other desired seasonings, such as garlic powder, paprika, or dried thyme.
- Cook the Salmon Properly: Cook the salmon until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, but be careful not to overcook it or it will become dry and tough.
- Use a Pan with a Good Nonstick Surface: This will help prevent the salmon from sticking and breaking apart.
- Serve the Salmon Immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after cooking, while it is still hot and flaky.
