THE SALMON
Let’s break down this delicious recipe into two parts: the star, our fantastic salmon, and the showstopper, the amazing sauce. For the salmon, it’s a breeze – just a quick and easy marinade, followed by a sear in a hot pan for that perfect golden crispiness.
Ingredients you will need:
- olive oil
- Italian seasoning
- salt
- garlic powder
- black pepper
- red pepper flakes
Generously drizzle olive oil over 4 skinless salmon filets. Evenly sprinkle the listed seasonings over each fillet for a burst of delicious flavor.
Next, heat up a pan over medium-high heat until it’s nice and hot. Drizzle a bit of olive oil into the pan, then add the salmon filets. Sear one side for 3 to 4 minutes until it’s beautifully golden, then flip them over and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes until they’re perfectly cooked through.
After searing, gently set aside those delicious salmon filets for a moment. We’ll reunite them with the pan once our delectable sauce is ready to steal the spotlight!
THE SAUCE
Now, let’s dive into the magic of our heavenly cream sauce – a symphony of fresh garlic, butter, herbs, and lemon that’s downright incredible. This sauce has the power to elevate anything from a 10 to a 100!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Unsalted butter
- Garlic
- Heavy cream
- Chicken broth
- Lemon juice
- Parmesan
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Fresh parsley
- Fresh basil
- Fresh baby spinach
After removing the salmon from the pan, melt butter and sauté garlic over medium heat. Let the garlic work its fragrant magic for about a minute. Then, add in the heavy cream, chicken broth, lemon juice, spinach, parmesan, salt, and black pepper. Bring it to a simmer, whisking until smooth and everything blends together. Toss in fresh parsley and basil, give it a quick stir, and taste to adjust to your liking.
Finally, reintroduce the salmon filets to the pan, pouring some of that delightful sauce over the top. Your masterpiece is now ready to be served and savored!
