2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions

3. Place salmon skin-side down and cook 4–5 minutes until skin is crisp.

Notes
Patting the salmon dry ensures a crisp crust.
Don’t overcrowd the pan or the salmon may steam instead of sear.
Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of your fillets.
