½ tsp salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
1 tbsp olive oil

For the dill butter

3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
¼ tsp fennel seeds, lightly crushed
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with the salt.
2
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place the fillets skin-side down and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and the flesh has turned opaque about two-thirds of the way up the sides.
