Directions

Dry your salmon filets on both sounds well. This helps to take away any excess moisture the salmon has which in turn will help the salmon sear and get a nice crust.
In a small bowl mix together the salt, pepper, paprika, dried oregano and dried dill.
When you are ready to cook the salmon sprinkle the spice mixture over the flesh side of each piece of salmon.
In a large skillet or cast iron skillet heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Turn the heat down to medium- low.
Add each piece of salmon with the skin side down. Press the top of the salmon for about 15 seconds.
Add each piece of salmon and repeat the above process.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side. If the salmon sticks you need to wait another 1 to 2 minutes.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 1 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
Remove salmon from the skillet and drizzle extra virgin olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice over top. Serve with Tzatziki and the Greek style salsa.
