Seared Wild Salmon
Easily one of my favorite meals to make. Fresh Wild salmon, with tons of lemon & pepper, alongside pan seared broccolini and sweet Japanese potatoes. Such an easy, flavor-packed dinner. Don’t be intimidated by cooking fish (with skin), I personally think it helps keep the fish moist. Provecho amigos!

- 1. Start by patting salmon dry. Use tweezers to remove any pin bones. Add salt, garlic p., onion p., salmon rub to front and skin side. Set aside.
- 2. Finely cube sweet potato. To a lined-baking sheet add potatoes and season with garlic, onion, salt, and cinnamon. Drizzle with oil and place in 425° oven for 15-20 min until golden brown.
- 3. ON medium-high heat, add oil to skillet and char broccolini. (Optional: I add ghee in addition to oil). Season with salt, lemon pepper and lemon juice. Char each side for 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- 4. In same pan, add oil and set heat to medium low. Place a few lemon slices on salmon and cook skin-side down FIRST. Cook 3-4 minutes covered. Flip carefully.
- 5. Cook additional 3-4 minutes until done (120-125° internal). Serve salmon with broccolini and sweet potatoes- garnish with lemon.
