Ingredients

– 4 salmon fillets, skinless
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
– Salt and black pepper, to taste
– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Here’s how to create Creamy Garlic Butter Salmon in just a few easy steps:

1. Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

3. Add Garlic: Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

4. Cook Salmon: Carefully place the salmon fillets into the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.

5. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and whisk in the Dijon mustard. Stir well to combine.

6. Season the Sauce: Allow the sauce to simmer for about 3-4 minutes, stirring regularly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Combine: Return the salmon fillets to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.

8. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley over the salmon fillets.

9. Serve: Plate the salmon, drizzling more sauce over the top. Add lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.
