  • While the veggies are cooking put a smaller skillet on at medium high and swirl in some olive oil. Top off the salon filets with half of the "rub" on the skinless side aka the side without the gray stripe. Put them in the skillet with the spicy side down and the gray striped side or skin side up. Then spice up the stripe side and cook for 2-3 minutes a side depending on how thick they are and how well done YOU like them.
