Enjoy a creamy and flavorful Garlic Tuscan Salmon, a perfect weeknight meal that’s both impressive and easy to make. This dish features tender salmon in a rich, garlic-infused cream sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs salmon fillets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the salmon for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove salmon from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Add minced garlic to the same skillet and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  6. Stir in chopped sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. Cook until spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Stir in Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
  8. Return the salmon fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a lighter sauce, you can substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or artichoke hearts.
  • Ensure your skillet is oven-safe. If not, transfer the sauce and salmon to a baking dish before oven cooking.
