– Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Creating Garlic Butter Salmon is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.
3. Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it!
4. Cook the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the skin to become crispy.
5. Flip the Salmon: Gently turn the salmon fillets over and continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
6. Add Fresh Herbs: Once cooked through, sprinkle chopped parsley over the salmon for added flavor and freshness.
7. Serve Immediately: Remove the skillet from heat and serve the salmon hot, drizzled with the buttery garlic sauce.
