Make sure the pat dry the salmon before cooking so you get a nice sear.
Keep the skin on the salmon so it’s easier to flip.
If you do not have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a non-stick skillet and transfer to a baking sheet to bake in the oven.
To store: Store leftover salmon in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
To reheat: You can reheat salmon on the stovetop or microwave or eat it chilled.
To freeze: Freeze in a freezer-safe bag once the salmon fillets have reached room temperature. Freeze for up to 4 months.
