Today we are going to show you how to cook a salmon fillet and a salmon steak. The salmon steak is a cross section cut from the fish and it is cooked with the bones in. The salmon fillet is boneless and a more expensive cut. Put one cup of all- purpose flour on a plate and season well with salt and pepper. Place the salmon fillet skin side down on the seasoned flour and press down well coating the skin in the flour. Heat some olive oil in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. When hot, place the fillet skin side down on to the pan and cook for 5 to 10 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Season the top of the fillet with salt and pepper and place into the oven at 400° F or 200° C for 6 minutes.
Place the salmon fillet on a rack in a roasting pan, season well with salt and pepper, drizzle on it some olive oil and brush evenly on the steak. Do the same on the other side. Place under a hot broiler or grill on the lowest shelf setting for 4 minutes on each side. Both the fillet and steak should be moist and pink in the very centre.
