Ingredients

  • 1 pound salmon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup Zack's jalapeno peach sauce can use peach preserves optional

Instructions

  • Heat oil in pan on medium high heat.
  • Remove bones from salmon. I run my finger up against the bones and they pop forward. Remove with tweezer or your fingers.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread peach sauce on salmon. Let it rest at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, although this is not necessary if time is an issue.
  • Place in hot pan skin side down. turn to medium. Cook 5 minutes.
  • Turn over. Cook for 3 minutes.

Notes

Getting it exactly right might take a time or two, because different sizes will cook differently. This salmon was a full pound and an inch thick.
