- 2 salmon filets
- 2 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- chopped parsley optional
Pat salmon filets with paper towels. Sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Place them on a microwave-safe plate. Cook in batches if necessary.
Add one tablespoon of butter on top of each filet.
Cover the plate and microwave for about 2 minutes (cook 1 minute per filet)
Check the doneness of the salmon with an instant-read thermometer. As soon as it reaches 130–140°F, the salmon is safe to eat. Make sure not to overcook your salmon.
