- Heat a fry pan over medium high heat with a drizzle of olive oil and place salmon skin side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes till the skin is golden and crispy then turn fish over with a spatula and cook for a further 3-4 minutes until it feels slightly firm to the touch.
- Serve the salmon filets with the caponata garnished with extra chopped parsley and mint and an extra drizzle of olive oil on top.
