In a large nonstick skillet with a lid, heat olive oil until hot.
While the oil heats, prepare the salmon by brushing each filet with Gochujang.
Place salmon sauce side down (skin side facing up) in the skillet. Immediately top with the lid.
Cook for about 2 minutes on high heat, then remove the lid and flip skin side down. Immediately top with the lid again. Turn down the heat.
Continue to cook until your desired temperature. In this preparation, I like my salmon cooked all the way through, which takes about 8 minutes, depending on thickness.
Serve immediately.
Notes
This sauce is spicy and wafts into the air. Always make this dish with your range’s fan on!
