Cilantro Lime Salmon
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 (6 ounce) salmon filets
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ cup vegetable broth
- ¼ cup lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ¼ cup (plus more for garnish) fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 1½ cups cooked white rice (for serving)
Directions
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Season salmon all over with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet skin-side up. Cook salmon until deeply golden, about 6 minutes, then flip over and cook 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
Add butter and garlic. When the butter has melted and looks foamy, stir in broth, lime juice, honey, and cumin. Bring mixture to a simmer then stir in cilantro.
Reduce heat to medium and add the salmon back to the skillet. Simmer until the sauce has reduced and the salmon is cooked through, 3-4 minutes more.
Garnish with more cilantro and serve over cooked white rice.
