Description

This delicious Creamy Tuscan Salmon comes together in about 30 minutes and is cooked all in one pot for a quick and easy weeknight dinner that your family will love!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 salmon filets (about 1 pound total)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ white onion (diced)
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach
  • Salt (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Pat the salmon filets dry. Sprinkle a couple pinches of salt and pepper over the top.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Carefully place the salmon in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, toss in the diced onion, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and minced garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream, then sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Stir and let simmer.
  5. Toss in the baby spinach and stir until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Return the salmon to the skillet and let simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
  6. Dish it out warm, pouring the creamy sauce over the salmon.
