For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the lemon-pepper mixture. Ensure your skillet is screaming hot before adding the salmon to achieve the perfect blackened crust. A cast-iron skillet works wonders for this recipe. If you prefer a more pronounced lemon flavor, zest half a lemon into the butter mixture. Serve immediately with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
