Notes
Pan Seared Miso Butter Salmon (alternate cooking method)
Heat a tablespoon of neutral oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add salmon skin-side down, top with miso butter, and cook for 3–4 minutes. Flip, spoon melted butter over the fish, and cook another 2–4 minutes until just cooked through. Notes to ensure the recipe is successful.- To make sure you get a tender flaky salmon every time follow these easy tips:
- Use fresh salmon or be sure to completely thaw your salmon before cooking.
- Make sure the pieces of salmon are all approximately the same size and thickness.
- Use a thermometer checking the internal temp as the salmon cooks, checking thinner pieces before the thicker ones.
- If you have different sized pieces of fish, you may need to take them out of the oven at different times.
