PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH LEMON-WHITE WINE SAUCE

This Pan Seared Salmon with Lemon White Wine Butter Sauce is a fast and easy salmon recipe for busy weeknights. Only six ingredients and 20 minutes!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/4 lb salmon, about 1
• Seasoning of choice (Old Bay)
• 3 T butter
• 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
• 1/3 c white wine (Chardonnay)
• 1/2 fresh lemon
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

DIRECTIONS

1. Pre-heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Season the flesh of the fish with whatever seasoning you would prefer, I used Old Bay in this particular instance.
2. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pan and heat to shimmering. Add fish skin side down, and allow to crisp up, 4 minutes or so. Turn the heat down to medium. Using a spatula, carefully turn the fish over and finish cooking while crisping up the skin, approximately eight minutes. Check the fish using a fork towards the end of cooking-if it flakes easily, it is done. Do not overcook it, as it will also continue to cook slightly once remove from the pan. Transfer fish to a serving platter.
