Tips:
- Select the freshest salmon fillet. Look for firm flesh that springs back when you press it gently. Avoid fillets with brown spots or a slimy texture.
- Use a variety of citrus fruits. This recipe calls for lemon, lime, and orange, but you can also use grapefruit, tangerine, or clementine. Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite flavor profile.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you're cooking multiple fillets, make sure there's enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the salmon until it's just cooked through. Overcooked salmon is dry and tough, so keep an eye on it and remove it from the heat as soon as it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Garnish with fresh herbs, citrus slices, and a drizzle of olive oil, and enjoy!
