1
Prepare the Salmon
Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2
Sear the Salmon
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for about 4-5 minutes until crispy. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.
3
Make the Lemon Caper Sauce
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add butter and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Stir in lemon juice and capers, cooking for another minute.
4
Serve
Return the salmon to the skillet to coat with the sauce. Serve the salmon topped with the lemon caper sauce and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
