Como fazer North African Style Alaska Salmon

Reserve 2 tablespoons of pitted Kalamata olives.
In a blender, combine the remaining 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper flakes. Blend until smooth.
Set the sauce aside.
Rinse any ice glaze from frozen salmon fillets under cold running water. Pat thoroughly dry with paper towels.
Heat a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil to the skillet.
Brush both sides of the salmon fillets with the olive oil.
Place salmon fillets in the heated skillet and cook, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned and slightly crispy. Shake the pan occasionally to prevent sticking.
Turn salmon fillets over, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning.
Cover the pan tightly, reduce heat to medium, and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes for frozen salmon or 3-4 minutes for fresh/thawed salmon. Cook until the fish is opaque throughout and flakes easily with a fork.
To serve, spoon a generous dollop of the North African sauce over each salmon portion.
Garnish with the reserved olives and 1 tablespoon of thinly sliced red onion.
