Fried salmon

I know this is a bbq forum, I just wanted to share on of my favorite meals which is fried salmon.

I started out with a nice sockeye fillet, added some salt w/fresh ground pepper, spread on some basil pesto, a few drops of hot honey, some garden freshly chopped fennel and then several dashes of whisked flour to the meat side. I left the skin side alone and then cut the fillet into 4 sections.
After my pan w/butter reached proper heat I tossed in the 4 pieces for a few minutes until the skin was nice and crip, I then flipped it over to sear the meat side of the fillet.

It’s chanterelle mushroom season here and the roadside stands are full of decently price mushrooms so I sauté up what I had left (including some regular mushrooms in butter and good sake for a side dish.
My wife made some rice and asparagus.
My mom made a nice kale salad w/ some pairs from our trees and the left over beets that we enjoyed cold this round.
My older brother cut the bread and opened the wine.

I love cooking with the family and this meal is one of my faves.

Ha ha.
That ole frying pan is so booty it won’t hold butter in the middle so I have to circle around the high spot with the protein.
I really need to toss that sucker out.
The electric cooktop cost a lot but is a less than as well.
There is no natural gas on the Olympic Peninsula 🫤.
