Pan Roasted Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 garlic cloves
2 scallions, green parts only
1/2 cup Italian parsley, fresh, leaves only
1 tablespoon rosemary, fresh (or 1 tsp. dried)
1 teaspoon dried basil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 salmon steaks
1/2 cup white wine, the good stuff

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350.
Place the garlic, scallions, parsley and rosemary together on a cutting board and chop them up finely.
Transfer to a medium bowl.
Add the basil, mustard and olive oil- stir to combine.
Spread the mixture in a thin layer over both sides of the salmon.
Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat and get it VERY hot.
Place the salmon into the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes- or until they are lightly browned.
Flip the salmon to the other side and cook for 2 more minutes.
Pour the wine into the pan- but not directly over the salmon (watch out for hot steam!).
Place the pan on the center rack of the oven and bake, uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through.
