5. When the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, remove it from the skillet and serve.

Tips

-Avoid overcooking the salmon by monitoring it closely and checking for doneness with a fork.

-For a crispier salmon, press down lightly on the fillet while it’s cooking. This will help ensure that the edges get golden-brown and crispy.
