Salmon is one of my favorite foods and I love that the flavor combinations in preparing it are endless. Lately I’ve been obsessed with just searing the salmon in a pan, I think it may actually be my choice method of cooking it – with grilling in a close second. I just love the way it gets this perfectly seared crisp crust on the exterior while the interior stays perfectly tender and doesn’t dry out. I also love the pan searing method because it’s one of the quickest. No preheating an oven or grill and it’s ready in about 7 minutes (with that said letting it rest at room temperature, as listed in the recipe, is optional I just feel it gives a better crust and helps it cook more evenly, but if you don’t have the 10 minutes no big deal).
