Salmon with Artichoke Cream Sauce
Salmon with Artichoke Cream Sauce is a lightly seasoned salmon topped with a cream sauce that has bits of artichokes.
Salmon is such a versatile fish, for this reason, it is one of my favorites to cook. It is also extremely healthy and in our house I try to prepare fish at least twice a week for the omega-3 fatty acids. This recipe is a salmon that is a bit dressed up with the cream sauce. It can be served with rice, pasta or even potatoes of your choosing. No matter how you serve this I am sure you will find it delicious and simple to make any night of the week.
What You Will Need To Make Salmon With Artichoke Cream Sauce:
3-4 4 oz of fresh skinless salmon
1 cup of jarred artichoke hearts in water (drained)
1 tbsp butter
1.5 tbsp flour
1 cup of milk
coconut oil or olive oil for sautéing the salmon
1 cup of heavy cream
salt and pepper
Directions:
Add coconut oil to a heavy bottom or cast iron skillet. Salt and pepper the salmon. When adding to the pan place the seasoned side down. Salt and pepper the other side after placing the salmon in the skillet. Cook salmon for approximately 2 1/2 to 3 mins on each side.
Once cooked, remove salmon from the pan and set aside for now.
Wipe the pan out and add the 1 tbsp of butter. Then sprinkle the flour to make a rue.
Slowly add in the milk and cream.
Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the artichoke hearts and any additional salt and pepper needed. While the sauce continues to simmer smash the artichokes down with a fork.
When sauce is thickened, add the salmon back to the pan.
Serve over a bed of rice or fresh pasta.
