Ingredients

6 servings

  • 3 (8 ounce) center-cut salmon fillets, with skin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic-pepper seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  • Pat fillets dry with a paper towel and set in a baking dish, skin-side down. Sprinkle with garlic-pepper seasoning and dill. Turn fillets over and generously rub salt all over the skin only. Cover baking dish and set on the counter for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over high heat until it just starts to smoke. Reduce heat to medium-high and add butter. As soon as butter melts, add fillets, skin-side down. Cover the skillet, and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 9 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove fillets with a metal spatula and serve immediately.
