Pan Fried Salmon Steak
Contributed by: News Canada
Salmon basics
- Keep salmon refrigerated until ready to cook
- Leave skin on during cooking; it helps to hold fish together while turning or moving it and prevents the fish from curling during cooking. The skin comes off easily after cooking.
- Cook salmon just until meat begins to change color and becomes flaky
- Salmon will continue to cook after being removed from heat source, so be careful not to overcook.
