<human>:  What is the best way to cook a filet of salmon?
<bot>: The best way to cook a filet of salmon is to season it with salt and pepper, then pan-sear it over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes on each side. To ensure the fish is cooked through and juicy, use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F to be considered done.
