Ingredients
  

1 lb fresh salmon fillet, skinless and cut into bite-sized cubes

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Zest of 1 lemon

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Salmon: Start by cutting the salmon fillet into bite-sized cubes, making sure they are uniform for even cooking.

    Make the Lemon Butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

      Add Flavor: Stir in the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for another minute, letting the flavors meld.

        Cook the Salmon: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the salmon bites in a single layer, careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Baste the salmon with the lemon butter sauce as it cooks for extra flavor.

          Combine: Once the salmon bites are cooked, pour the remaining lemon butter sauce over them and gently toss to coat.

            Serve: Transfer the savory lemon butter salmon bites to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for freshness and a pop of color.
