Pan Fried Salmon

Pan Fried Salmon

I am definitely not a fish fan or seafood in general and that’s mostly because I rarely find a tasty fish and a great recipe for it, something that doesn’t require weird ingredients or endless time baking in the oven. Take the salmon for example, I would probably stress out a lot of people, but for me it is kinda bland. I mean it is cool as long as you add all kind of spices and whatnot but then again so is any other fish, in the end they all taste the same. Still, the best fish I ever had was a charcoal grilled Prussian carp with just a bit of salt sprinkled on it, but good luck finding that one in North America.

Anyway, back to the salmon. I found an interesting recipe that can be done in 10-15 minutes and that can really transform your seafood, turning you into a fish addict (been eating this thing for a week now :)) so enjoy…
