Directions

  1. Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Set aside.

  2. Mix brown sugar, coconut, and salt together in a shallow bowl.

  3. Heat remaining butter in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Dip each piece of salmon first into the melted butter and then into the coconut mixture, drop into the hot butter. Sear quickly, about 2 minutes. Flip and sear on the other side, about 2 minutes more.

  4. Remove skillet from the heat and cover for a few minutes or until ready to serve, this helps caramelize the coconut crust.
