For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a sprinkle of chopped cilantro before serving. Feel free to experiment with other types of fish, such as cod, haddock, or pollock. Adjust cooking times accordingly. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the salmon to achieve a crispy exterior. Marinating the salmon for longer than 15 minutes will deepen the flavor.
