  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 salmon fillets
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Tuscan Salmon with Parmesan Cream Sauce can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Salmon: Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.

2. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

3. Cook Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

5. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and stir, allowing it to simmer for 2-3 minutes.

6. Incorporate Cheese: Gradually add the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Stir constantly until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.

7. Combine and Serve: Return the cooked salmon to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the fillets. Allow it to heat for a minute before garnishing with chopped parsley and serving.
