Description

Indulge in a delightful Creamy Parmesan Tuscan Salmon, featuring tender salmon fillets in a rich garlic and spinach sauce that’s sure to impress at any dinner table.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillets to ensure crispy skin.
  2. Heat It Up: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add salmon fillets skin-side down and sear for about 4 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Flip & Flavor: Carefully flip the salmon using a spatula. Add minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the pan. Cook for an additional 3 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Create That Sauce: Pour in heavy cream and add grated Parmesan cheese. Stir gently until the cheese melts into a smooth sauce. Add fresh spinach last to wilt without losing color.
  5. Season & Simmer: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until everything melds together into creamy perfection.
  6. Serve It Up: Transfer salmon onto plates, spooning the creamy sauce over each piece. Serve immediately with pasta or rice for a delightful meal.
