Instructions

In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, lemon juice, lemon pepper seasoning, and chopped parsley until smooth. Set aside.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and brush both sides with olive oil or melted butter.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Season both sides of each salmon fillet evenly with the spice mixture.
Preheat a cast-iron skillet, flat-top griddle, or grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F / 200°C).
Lightly grease the cooking surface with oil.
Place the salmon flesh-side down and cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook another 3 to 4 minutes until fully cooked.
Transfer the salmon to serving plates.
Top each fillet with a spoonful of the garlic lemon pepper butter and let it melt for about 1 minute before serving with lemon wedges and your favorite sauce.

Notes

Avoid overcooking the salmon for the juiciest texture. The homemade lemon pepper butter can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to use.
