Spicy Seared Salmon

Course Main Dish
Cuisine Asian
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbs. olive oil
  • 4 filets salmon
  • 4 tbs. Gochujang sauce

Instructions
 

  • 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!
