Preheat the skillet by pouring a small amount of olive oil into it. Heat the stove to medium, placing the skillet on the burner to get hot.
While the skillet is heating, use needle-nose pliers to remove bones from the salmon fillet carefully. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and ground pepper on the fillet, spreading it evenly with a cooking brush or spatula.
When the skillet is hot, carefully place the seasoned salmon fillet in it using tongs. Cook the first side for three minutes, then flip with tongs and cook the other side for an additional three minutes. For a pink interior, cook for three minutes on each side. For a fully cooked fillet, cook for five to six minutes on each side. Check for doneness by piercing the fillet with a small end knife. Cook longer if needed.
Once the salmon is cooked to your liking, use tongs to remove it from the skillet carefully. Turn off the burner to save energy. Place the cooked salmon on a dish lined with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Wipe excess water off a plate. Place a slice of lemon on the side of the plate. Using tongs, carefully transfer the salmon fillet to the plate, ensuring the lemon slice is placed next to it.
Cut a thin slice of lime and place it on top of the salmon. Chop parsley leaves using a knife and sprinkle them over the salmon.
