Salmon is my favorite fish after Sea Bass. Its creamy, rich flavour and its smooth crumbly texture falls apart and melts nicely in your mouth IF done right in the kitchen.
Today I made a medium rare salmon steak for a salmon pie which I later added in to a home made crust and further baked (hence the medium rare).
This steak would be good if served with mashed potatoes and steamed brocoli as an amateur and quick dinner or eaten just by itself.
SERVES 1
Ingredients
1 Salmon fillet
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 large cloves of garlic (grated or minced)
Salt & black pepper
Mixed herbs
Oil for frying
Method
1. Marinate the fish with all the ingredients.
2. Leave to marinate I’m cling wrap overnight or at least an hour to seal in flavour.
3. Fry it skin side down until meat turns opaque halfway (about 5-10 mins)
4. Flip the salmon once and never again and cook for 5-7 mins until just a thin layer of meat is left translucent.
5. Allow meat to rest before cutting up.
6. Serve.
Easy, fuss free, and tastes so good. Bon appetite!
