Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Pan Seared Salmon with Garlic Butter:

1. Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until melted and bubbly.
3. Sear the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked about halfway up.
4. Flip the Fillets: Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a spatula. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Add Garlic: Push the salmon to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and the minced garlic to the other side.
6. Sauté Garlic: Sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
7. Combine: Drizzle the garlic butter over the salmon and add the lemon juice. Cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to meld.
8. Garnish: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the salmon with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color.
9. Serve: Transfer the salmon to plates and pour the garlic butter sauce over the top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
