Skillet Seared Salmon

This receipe has a little spice to it but still really mild.....I would recommend Halibut if you do not like Salmon for this recipe. I am sure Tilapia might taste just as well. If you try a different fish with this let me know. I would love to try it out:)

2 - 5-6oz. skinless salmon fillets, about 1 inch thick
1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
2 large roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. Butter
1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped.

Lightly season salmon with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in large skillet over med-high heat. Add salmon and cook 8-10 mins until salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork, turning once halfway thru cooking.

Set aside salmon. Add tomatoes, jalapeno, and butter to skillet; cook and stir for a 1 min. Spoon over salmon and sprinkle with cilantro and serve. Enjoy!
