- 2 6 oz salmon fillets
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dill chopped fresh or frozen
- 1 tsp lemon juice optional
Preheat a large skillet on medium heat for 2 minutes. Add 1 tbsp olive oil and then add salmon, skin side down, if using skin on salmon.
Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and top with dill. (Note:You can leave the dill out for now and just use it to garnish the cooked salmon.
Cook for 3 minutes, then flip. Cook for 2 minutes on the other side. Remove from heat, let it sit in the pan for 5 minutes, then serve. Salmon should be done, when it flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer to plates. Drizzle lemon juice on top.
