Simple Pan Fried Salmon image

The cooking times are for salmon cut into approximately 1.5 inch wide, 1.5 inch thick, and 6 inch long pieces, or a little larger. Cooking time may need to be adjusted for larger or thicker pieces. I usually cook with the skin side down first if it's not possible to cook it with the skin along the side.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb salmon, sliced
2 teaspoons oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Sprinkle salmon with a moderate to generous amount of salt. Pepper as desired.
  • Lightly coat salmon in flour on a plate.
  • Place salmon in heated skillet over medium heat coated with roughly equal parts oil and butter (slightly more butter). It should start cooking at a slow to medium sizzle.

  • Turn salmon, put lid back on, and reduce heat slightly. Cook another 5-7 minutes or until done.
  • Can remain in pan with lid on and heat off for a little while until ready to serve.
