Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 pinch dried red chili pepper, crushed
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 4 ounces salmon fillets (skinless)
  • olive oil flavored cooking spray

Method

  • In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except the salmon. Stir to make a paste.
  • Rub the paste to evenly cover the salmon fillets. Place on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 5 minutes up to 2 hours.
  • Preheat a 10" nonstick pan over medium high heat. Spray with oil and add salmon. Cook 2 minutes per side, then lower heat to medium. Continue cooking until inside is no longer translucent, about 3 minutes per side. Enjoy!
