Title: Crispy-Skinned Salmon Categories: Fish, Tried Yield: 4 Servings 24 oz Salmon fillets; with skin 2 tb Olive oil 1 tb Cracked black pepper 2 ts Kosher salt; or less 1 ts Garlic; chopped 1 pn Dried thyme 1 pn Dried rosemary 1 Crumbled bay leaves 1. Brush salmon with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Combine pepper, salt, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Sprinkle on salmon. Leave to marinate for 2 hours on counter or 4 hours refrigerated. 2. Heat remaining oil on medium-high heat in a non-stick skillet. Add salmon, skin-side down. Fry 1 minute then cover pan and cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until salmon is cooked but still slightly pink in centre. Remove salmon fillet from skin and place on dish. Remove skin, sliver and sprinkle over salmon. Serving Ideas : Lucy Waverman: frites or mashed potatoes NOTES : The recipe is for 4 6-ounce salmon fillets with skin on, but it worked well on a single large fillet of the same total weight. I find that 1 1/2 teaspoons salt make the salmon sufficiently salty. The marinated salmon can also be cooked on a preheated barbeque, with the lid down.
