Equipment
- Large Skillet
- Spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Knife and cutting board
Ingredients
For the Salmon:
- 4 salmon fillets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
For the Sauce:
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cups fresh spinach
Instructions
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes. Flip the fillets carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.
- Lower the heat to medium. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for an additional minute.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir well to combine. Let the mixture simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Add the fresh spinach to the sauce, stirring until it wilts completely. Mix in the grated parmesan cheese, stirring until it melts and the sauce thickens slightly.
- Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over them. Let the salmon and sauce simmer together for 2 minutes to reheat and infuse the flavors.
- Serve immediately, ensuring each portion is topped with plenty of sauce.
