This is a very quick and easy to prepare recipe. You can also bake the fillets, but in this recipe I fry the fillets. Still just as quick and tasty!
Ingredients:
4 salmon fillets (about 1-inch thick)
1/4 cup butter
4 tablespoons lemon juice
salt
pepper
garlic powder
dried thyme
2 tablespoons oil (i like olive oil, but any oil will work)
Directions:
1. Season salmon fillets with salt, pepper, garlic powder and thyme. Turn salmon over and repeat. Using your hands, rub seasoning into salmon. Let marinate for a minimum of 10 minutes.
2. In medium non-stick skillet heat oil over medium to high heat.
3. Add salmon and cook for 4 minutes.
4. Gently turn salmon over and repeat.
5. While waiting for your salmon to cook, microwave butter until melted. Usually about 30-40 seconds.
6. Add lemon juice to melted butter and mix.
7. Remove salmon from pan and place on dish.
8. Spoon lemon butter sauce over the top of each salmon fillet.
9. Suggestion:.
10. Serve with warm rice and add a side of freshly steamed veggies such as fresh cut green beans and sliced almonds.
