Chimichurri Salmon With Barley Risotto

Searing is one of the simplest, fastest ways to prepare salmon fillets. It ensures that the outside gets crispy while the inside stays moist and tender. The key to achieving that golden crust: Bring your nonstick skillet up to a high temperature before adding the fish to the pan. For a more subtly spiced chimichurri, reduce the hot pepper flakes to just a pinch.
