Instructions
- Season the Salmon: Pat salmon filets dry with paper towels. Sprinkle both sides with black pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, dill, and (if desired) red pepper flakes.
- Pan-Sear the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon filets skin-side down and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the fish is mostly cooked through. Carefully flip the salmon and cook the flesh side for another 2–3 minutes.
- Add the Teriyaki Glaze: Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour teriyaki sauce into the skillet and spoon it over the salmon as it simmers and thickens, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat once the salmon is glazed and cooked through (internal temp ~125–130°F for medium).
- Serve: Plate salmon with a drizzle of extra teriyaki sauce. Garnish with fresh dill or sesame seeds if desired.
