Equipment
- Frying Pan
Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil packed in the oil
- 4 pieces salmon fillet
- salt
- pepper
Flavorings
- 2 cloves garlic
- 3-4 pieces sun-dried tomatoes sliced
- 125 ml dry white wine
- 250 ml double/heavy cream
- 50 g Parmesan cheese grated
- 30 g fresh spinach
Instructions
Cooking Steps
- Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel all over to remove excess moisture. Season salmon with salt and pepper, heat the olive oil together with butter in a frying pan, then sear the salmon over medium high heat until golden and the skin side is crispy, starting with the skin side up. This should take approximately 6-7 minutes. Remove the salmon to a plate until later.
- To the same pan add the garlic and sliced sun-dried tomatoes, sauté for about 30 seconds over very low heat, then deglaze the pan with the white wine and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the liquid is reduced by a half.
- Add the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, stir until the cheese is incorporated into the sauce, then add the spinach and bring the salmon back into the pan, let the sauce simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Season the sauce with salt to taste.
Notes
You’ll need to remove extra moisture from the salmon so the fish can sear instead of steam. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is always a better option.
