OVEN BAKED SALMON WITH CREME FRAICHE
Salmon recipes can be cooked many ways, but in my book, there's nothing as easy as oven baked salmon in white wine and lemon for a healthy dinner, or to make and use for meal prep all week long.

PAN-FRIED WILD SALMON
Steps:
- Rinse the salmon fillets and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels; season with sea salt.
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Gently lay the salmon into the hot oil with the skin side facing up and cook until the the flesh side is golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes; turn and continue cooking until the skin side is slightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove the salmon from the skillet, allowing any oil to drain from the fish back into the pan.
- Remove the skin from the salmon fillets; fry the skin in the oil remaining in the skillet until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the crispy skin with the salmon.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, wild-caught salmon. If you can't find wild-caught salmon, frozen salmon will also work.
- To make the chive oil, use fresh chives. If you don't have fresh chives, you can use dried chives, but they will not be as flavorful.
- To make the lime crème fraîche, use fresh lime juice. If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can use bottled lime juice, but it will not be as flavorful.
- When cooking the salmon, be careful not to overcook it. Salmon is best when it is cooked to medium-rare or medium.
- Serve the salmon immediately with the chive oil and lime crème fraîche.
Conclusion:
This recipe for wild salmon with chive oil and lime crème fraîche is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy salmon. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the chive oil and lime crème fraîche add a flavorful and refreshing touch. This recipe is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
