1/2 tsp dry mango powder

1 tsp roughly crushed cumin seeds
1/2 tsp black pepper powder
1/2 tsp dry mango powder
1 tsp salt
Directions
- Mix the dry rub ingredients in a bowl and massage it into both sides of the salmon filet. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
- In a large pan or skillet, on low to medium heat add olive oil. When it begins to shimmer, add the garlic cloves, after a few seconds, place all the salmon filet together.
- Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until it has a crunchy crust. Turn the garlic cloves occasionally to prevent burning.
- Once both sides are flipped and browned, turn off the heat. Cover and skillet and let it rest for another 5 minutes.
- Garnish with mint leaves, and a generous serving of fried garlic cloves. Serve hot. Enjoy!
