- Season the salmon fillet generously: This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Cook the salmon fillet over low heat: This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Baste the salmon fillet with the olive oil while it is cooking: This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful.
- Serve the salmon fillet with a simple salad and a balsamic vinegar dressing: This will help to balance out the richness of the fish.
