Coastal Living






List of Ingredients



• Four 6-ounce salmon fillets with skin
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
  
• Olive oil *
  






Instructions



1. Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper.
   
   
2. In a large skillet, pour enough olive oil so that the oil will come up to about half the height of the fish.
   
   
3. Add fillets, skin side down, and cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness. Serve immediately.
   
   Makes 4 servings.
   
   * Be sure to use "pure" olive oil here, not extra-virgin olive oil, which burns more easily.
