Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skinless
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish
  • Instructions

  • Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter and let it melt. Toss in the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it starts to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and dried Italian seasoning. Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up all the browned bits. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Pour in the heavy cream and add the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  • Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir it into the warm sauce until it just wilts.
  • Return the seared salmon fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the creamy Tuscan sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the top of each fillet and let everything heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh basil or parsley. Serve immediately over pasta, zucchini noodles, or creamy mashed potatoes.
  • Notes

    A quick and easy restaurant-quality meal featuring perfectly seared salmon in a luxurious, creamy sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and garlic, all ready in about 30 minutes.
