Quick and Easy Salmon Recipe!
Cooking salmon in a skillet has actually become my favorite way to prepare it.
You get a gorgeously browned exterior that’s lightly crisp on the edges and that browning adds so much flavor! Then the interior is perfectly cooked and tender.
When you cook it in a skillet it’s also easier to keep an eye on it so it doesn’t overcook, which can be easier to do on a grill or in the oven.
Plus this method it only takes minutes to cook, we are talking only about 6 minutes! When you are short on time for dinner salmon is where it’s at.
Then after you’ve cooked those beautiful fillets it’s on to a that bright dijon sauce. It’s a simple creamy sauce that’s flavored with tangy dijon and fresh dill. A combination that’s perfect for salmon.
Then serve it warm accompanied by some steamed greens and dinner never looked better!
