Pan-Fried Wild Salmon

Servings: 2 
Prep Time: 5 min, Cook Time: 15 min, Ready In: 20 min

Ingredients:
  • 2 (3 ounce) fillets wild salmon with skin
  • Sea salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Directions:
  1. Rinse the salmon fillets and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels; season with sea salt.
  2. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Gently lay the salmon into the hot oil with the skin side facing up and cook until the the flesh side is golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes; turn and continue cooking until the skin side is slightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove the salmon from the skillet, allowing any oil to drain from the fish back into the pan.
  4. Remove the skin from the salmon fillets; fry the skin in the oil remaining in the skillet until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the crispy skin with the salmon.
