Ingredients
Scale
Salmon
- 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets
Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
Cooking Oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Season the Salmon: Spread the everything bagel seasoning evenly over the surface of the salmon fillets, pressing it gently to ensure it sticks well.
- Heat the Oil: Place a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat and heat the olive oil until shimmering but not smoking.
- Sear the Salmon: Add the salmon fillets to the hot pan, skin side down. Cook for 5 minutes to develop a crispy skin.
- Flip the Salmon: Carefully flip the fillets and cook for an additional 4 to 6 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) measured by a digital thermometer.
- Check for Doneness: The salmon is ready when it flakes easily with a fork and the flesh is opaque rather than translucent.
Notes
- Use a non-stick or well-seasoned skillet to prevent sticking.
- Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
- Everything bagel seasoning may contain sesame seeds and garlic; adjust if you have allergies.
- Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or salad for a complete meal.
