Here is a simple meal that you can cook for your family.
You might be wondering why there are quotation marks in “grilled”. Technically, in this dish I am not grilling the salmon because I am not using a grill. I am a using a frying pan. However, the technique I will use is like grilling – with the use of a frying pan. Baked, well, I think you know why.
My father told once that there is a fine line between frying and grilling using a frying pan. With frying, the oil is in the pan. In grilling, the oil is on the food, (or basting). So later on when I pan-grill the salmon, I will drizzle the salmon with olive oil.
With regard to the ingredients, there are no exact measurements. Just make sure that the salmon pieces are covered by the seasoning or depending on your desired taste. More salt, saltier. More pepper, spicier.
Here we go.
Cooking time: 30 minutes for two pieces of salmon.
Ingredients:
Salmon
Salt
Pepper
Olive Oil
Parsley
1. Season Salmon. Drizzle the salmon with olive oil. Put salt and pepper.
Drizzle olive oil on the salmon. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat pan. DO NOT PUT OIL IN PAN! Place the salmon in the pan only when the pan is hot.
Heat the pan. Place the salmon on the pan and cook one side for 5 minutes each.
This is a technique my father taught me. If you are going to fry or “grill” food in a pan, make sure that the pan is hot so that the food will not stick to the pan.
3. Once the pan is hot, place the salmon in the pan. Cook one side for 5 minutes. There is no need to fork
or move the salmon. Just let it stay there on the pan. After 5 minutes, turn the salmon over and cook for
another 5 minutes.
4. After five minutes, set aside the salmon (on a baking dish or Pyrex dish) and cook the other piece. Do steps 3 and 4 depending on the number of salmon pieces you want to bake.
N.B. At this time, I will pre-heat the over at 350 degrees Farenheit.
5. Once all the salmon slices have been cooked and placed in a baking dish, sprinkle parsely on the salmon.
Set aside the grilled salmon pieces on a baking dish or Pyrex dish. Drizzle parsley on the salmon pieces.
6. Bake the salmon for 20 minutes.
Bake the salmon for 20 minutes at 350 degrees Farenheit.
Enjoy your meal.
