Ingredients
4Salmon Filletsskin removed
Salt & Pepper for seasoning the fish
1Tbsp.Olive Oil
1Tbsp.Butter
3cupsSpinach
4oz.Bella Mushroomssliced
1Garlic Cloveminced
1tsp.Butter
1/4cupSun Dried Tomatoes, sliced
1cupCream
1/3cupParmesan Cheese
2tbsp.Cream Cheese
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil to medium high heat. Prepare your salmon fillets by removing the skin and seasoning both sides with salt and pepper. Place the flesh side down (skin side up) in the pan and allow it to seal for minutes or so depending on the thickness. Flip and repeat with the other side. Remove the cooked salmon from the pan and set aside.
Melt the remaining 1 tsp. of butter and add the minced garlic. Saute at medium heat for about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms and cook until browned. Set aside. Finally, add the fresh spinach to the pan and move it around frequently. Remove from the pan just as it starts to wilt and set it aside.
In the same pan, add the cream cheese and heavy cream to the pan and mix with a whisk then add in the Parmesan cheese. Whisk continuously at medium heat until the sauce thickens and would coat the back of a spoon. Add the spinach and mushrooms back into the pan. Add the salmon fillets. Then add the diced sun dried tomatoes.Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and parsley (optional).
Notes
If the sauce is too thin for your liking, add more Parmesan cheese a tablespoon at a time.
