Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs salmon fillets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove salmon from skillet and set aside.
  3. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer, then stir in Parmesan cheese and sun-dried tomatoes.
  5. Cook sauce, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Return salmon fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Spoon some sauce over the top of the salmon.
  8. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a tangier sauce, add a squeeze of lemon juice at the end.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or artichoke hearts.
  • Ensure your skillet is large enough to hold the salmon comfortably.
