Instructions

• Pat 1 pound salmon filets dry with paper towels.
• Preheat a 12- or 14-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot (about 1–2 minutes).
• Rub the salmon all over with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Sprinkle and rub 1 tablespoon blackened seasoning evenly over the salmon.
• Place the salmon in the skillet skin-side down if the fillets have skin (if skinless, place the presentation side down). Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes.
• Carefully flip the salmon and cook an additional 3–4 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque, flakes easily with a fork, and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
• Remove from the skillet and let rest 1–2 minutes before serving.
