Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare all your ingredients for the Creamy Tuscan Salmon. Ensure spinach is washed and dried, then slice cherry tomatoes in half. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. This prepares a perfect environment for cooking salmon.
- Carefully place seasoned salmon fillets in the hot skillet, cooking for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Add minced garlic to the pan and sizzle for about 1 minute. Then, add halved cherry tomatoes and stir for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Stir in fresh spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until it wilts. Combine with garlic and tomatoes.
- Pour in heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring well. Add Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, mixing until cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly.
- Return cooked salmon to skillet, spooning sauce over it. Cook for another 2-3 minutes on low heat, ensuring salmon is heated through.
- Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing flavors to meld. Keep an eye on it to avoid boiling.
- Plate the Creamy Tuscan Salmon immediately, garnished with fresh basil. Serve over rice, quinoa, or alongside roasted vegetables.

Notes
Use fresh, high-quality salmon for the best flavor. Adjust creaminess with more broth or cream. Don't skip the fresh basil garnish for added aroma.
