Scale
Salmon:
- 4 (6oz) salmon fillets, skin on
Seasoning:
- 1/4 cup everything bagel seasoning
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat and Season: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the everything bagel seasoning on a plate. Pat the salmon fillets dry, season with salt and pepper, then press the flesh side into the seasoning to create a crust.
- Sear and Bake: Heat olive oil in an oven-safe sauté pan. Sear the salmon skin-side down for 3 minutes on the stovetop. Transfer to the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes until desired doneness is reached.
- Crisp the Crust: For extra crispiness, flip the salmon back onto the crusted side in the pan on medium heat for 1 minute.
- Serve: Enjoy with fresh arugula, Greek salad, and tzatziki.
Notes
- Skip the Oven: If you prefer stovetop cooking, sear the salmon for a total of 6-7 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Air Fryer Option: Cook crusted salmon in an air fryer at 380°F for 8-12 minutes without flipping.
- Storage: Keep leftovers refrigerated in airtight containers for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: For best results, reheat in an air fryer (350°F for 3-5 mins), oven or toaster oven (350°F for 5-8 mins) to maintain crispiness.
