Tuscan Garlic Salmon Recipe

I feel like my collection of salmon recipes is now complete with the Tuscan garlic salmon. It’s crispy and flaky salmon and smothered in a creamy garlic sauce. This helps keep the salmon fillets tender, flaky, and moist. Tuscan recipes are always some of the top searches on this site and I think it’s because the sauce is finger-licking good! My favorite part about this recipe is that you can get a restaurant-quality meal RIGHT AT HOME! This meal is ready in under 30 minutes and is better than any restaurant I have had. This meal is one that you will make over and over again! Cook it with some pasta and a delicious salad and it will be the perfect meal.

Salmon Fillets: These will be the star of the show! Olive Oil: You will sear your salmon in the olive oil to get a nice golden edge.

But you can use store bought as well! Parmesan Cheese: This adds to the taste and texture of the sauce. Cornstarch: The cornstarch will help your sauce to thicken. Spinach: I use fresh spinach that I have chopped up. Sun-Dried Tomatoes: This is th best flavor that you can add to the dish in my opinon!

How to Make Creamy Tuscan Garlic Salmon

Simmer, don’t boil: To get your sauce nice and creamy and avoid having it separate, you want to keep the sauce simmering and don’t let it boil. Broth: You can substitute the chicken browth for water or vegetable broth. Fish: If you prefer to use another type of fish, you can try trout, cod or tilapia instead.
