Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Season the salmon fillets generously with salt and black pepper to your liking.
  2. In a large skillet, warm up the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until it releases its fragrant aroma.
  3. Carefully place the seasoned salmon fillets in the skillet. Cook them for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they achieve your preferred level of doneness. Once done, transfer the salmon to a plate and set it aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the fresh spinach leaves. Sauté and stir them for about 2-3 minutes until they wilt and become tender.
  5. Lower the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, and continue to cook for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the cheese is fully melted, stirring frequently.
  6. Add a teaspoon of lemon juice to the cream sauce and stir well to incorporate the flavors. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
  7. Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, placing them atop the bed of spinach and sauce. Allow them to heat through for a minute or two.
  8. Finally, serve your salmon with spinach and garlic cream sauce hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley for an extra touch of freshness.
