I LOVE salmon. Usually do filets...sorry no pics. But what I do is scale the skin, cut into large servings, remove the bones, smear unsalted butter on it and then season it with a little salt, pepper, and dill (go easy on it). Let it sit while you prep the pan. Get just a little oil and some lemon slices in the pan going, when the lemon starts to fall apart, get it out. Get the oil hot, then put the fish in skin down first, and season the non-skin side. DON'T TOUCH IT. Get a good sear, it's like you're making a fish skin chip that tastes absolutely awesome when it's like a potato chip (it's good for you too, just don't overdo the butter and oil). Flip in a few minutes, take out, total cook time around 8-9 minutes.
Whenever I'm in the doghouse, this always gets me out, btw
