Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon steaks
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 whole Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Pat the salmon steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This step is essential for achieving crispy skin.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the salmon steaks.
Step 3
Heat a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Allow it to heat for about 1-2 minutes until shimmering but not smoking.
Step 4
Place the salmon steaks skin-side down in the skillet. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even contact with the hot surface. Cook for 4-5 minutes without moving the salmon, allowing the skin to crisp up.
Step 5
Carefully flip the salmon steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness. You can check doneness by gently pressing the thickest part of the fish—it should feel slightly firm but not hard.
Step 6
Transfer the salmon steaks to a serving plate. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish.
Step 7
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a mixed green salad. Enjoy your crispy salmon steaks!
