15 MINUTE SALMON WITH MINT SALSA

1 1/2 lbs salmon filets, skin and bones removed, and cut into 4 pieces
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh mint
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 tbsp finely minced scallion
1 tsp finely minced fresh ginger
1 medium ripe fresh tomato, seeds and excess pulp removed, diced into about 1/4 inch pieces
3 medium cloves garlic, pressed
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp plus 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, divided use
salt and white pepper to taste

Mix together mint, cilantro, scallion, ginger, tomato, garlic, olive oil, 3 tbsp lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl, and set aside.

Preheat a 10-12 inch stainless steel skillet over medium high heat for about 2 minutes.

Rub salmon with 1 tbsp lemon juice and season with a little salt and white pepper. Place salmon in the hot pan skinned side up. Cook for 2-3 minutes. (There is no need to use any oil or liquid for this if you use a non-stick pan.) Turn and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
