Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet, then add the salmon and place a lid on the skillet. Cook salmon over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side; then, transfer salmon onto a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium, then add the butter and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Then, add the sun-dried tomato spread, broth and milk and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium-low, then slowly stir in the cheese until the sauce thickens. Allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes or until it thickens, then stir in the spinach until it's wilted.
  • Add the salmon back into the skillet, spooning the sauce over it. Enjoy!

Notes

-Make sure to use freshly grated parmesan cheese so the cheese doesn't curdle
-Cooking salmon: To tell if the salmon is cooked through, simply cut it with a fork. The salmon should flake very easily. If it doesn't, cook it for 1-2 more minutes
-Substitution: If you don't have sun-dried tomato spread, you can use regular sun-dried tomatoes. I'd start with a ½ cup and cut them into bite-size pieces.
