Steps:
- Pat salmon dry on both sides and sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Make seasoning mix & season salmon. In small bowl, mix together the dry oregano, garlic powder and paprika. Season the flesh side of the fish with this spice mixture.
- Sear the Salmon. In a large cast iron skillet, heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add one salmon fillet, skin-side down, and press the top with the back of a fish spatula for about 10 seconds (this prevents the skin from curling up.) Add the remaining salmon fillets, one at a time, pressing each with the spatula for 10 seconds. Cook for about 4 minutes. If skin resists lifting (or if it's sticking to the pan), allow the fish to cook for a little bit longer until you are able to lift up easily (no more than 6 minutes in total). Using the spatula and a fork to assist in flipping, flip the fish to the flesh side to cook for about 15 seconds or so. ( Salmon is ready when it registers 110°F (43°C) in the very center for rare, 120°F (49°C) for medium-rare, or 130°F (54°C) for medium, 5 to 7 minutes total.)
- Remove salmon from heat and immediately add lemon juice and lemon zest.
- Make arugula salad. In a bowl, add the baby arugula. Season with salt and add juice of ½ lemon and extra virgin olive oil. Toss to combine.
- Serve salmon with arugula salad (or any of the sides or salads suggested in the post). Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375˚. Combine the bread cubes, olives, red onion and cherry tomatoes on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss until everything is evenly coated. Bake until the bread just starts to crisp, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Rub the salmon with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt. Arrange on the baking sheet among the bread mixture. Bake until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil with the vinegar in a large bowl. Add the capers.
- Arrange the salmon on a platter and top with chopped parsley. Add the bread mixture to the vinaigrette along with the parsley leaves. Toss until completely coated. Serve the salmon with the bread salad.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Salt it heavily. Add the pasta and cook for 2 minutes less than directed by the package, about 5 minutes. Drain well reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet. Season the salmon evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and add to the hot skillet. Cook, undisturbed, until golden brown on the first side, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, for another minute. Add the tomatoes and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook the tomatoes, stirring often, until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and deglaze with the white wine. Simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly. Add the olives, parsley and oregano. Stir to combine. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and sprinkle the bare pasta with the Parmesan. Toss well to coat. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water and the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil and toss to combine. Add more pasta water as needed to maintain a silky sauce. Serve with additional cheese and olive oil if desired.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the salmon fillets well with paper towel and season evenly with 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add the oil to the pan and heat an additional 30 seconds. Add the fillets to the pan, flesh-side down, and cook undisturbed until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. The fish should look cooked up the sides of the fillets. Carefully flip the fish and cook an additional minute or until a thin metal skewer inserted in the thickest part comes out warm when touched to your bottom lip. Using a slotted spatula, remove the fish to a plate to rest.
- Return the pan to medium heat and add the shallot and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, adding more oil if needed. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant and soft, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, capers and lemon zest. Simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly. Whisk in the butter and mustard until smooth and combined. Stir in the parsley and spoon the sauce over the salmon.
