Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lb salmon
  • 3 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, drained
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup fresh parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Pat the salmon very dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the flour onto a flat plate. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour. Place skin-side down into the pan and sear 4-5 minutes. Flip, and sear an additional 3-4 minutes until crispy and easily removed from the skillet. Move to a plate.
  • Melt the butter in the pan, then stir in the garlic cloves and lemon zest until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds. Pour in the wine and simmer until reduced, about 1-2 minutes. Add the sundried tomatoes, spinach, and heavy cream. Simmer a minute or two until the spinach wilts, stirring. Stir in the parmesan. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as desired.
  • Slide the salmon filets and any juices into the skillet. Base until warmed through for a couple minutes.
  • Divide onto plates and serve with rice, mashed potatoes, or polenta, as desired. Garnish with fresh basil.
