Instructions
Creating Tuscan Garlic Salmon with Spinach and Tomato is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Sear the Salmon: Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the salmon to the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
3. Flip the Salmon: Carefully flip the salmon fillets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Add Spinach and Tomatoes: Add the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and the tomatoes are tender.
6. Return Salmon to Skillet: Place the salmon fillets back in the skillet. Spoon some of the spinach and tomato mixture over the salmon.
7. Add Cheese: If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Cover the skillet and let it cook for another minute to melt the cheese.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
These steps will guide you in creating this incredible dish effortlessly, ensuring that your Tuscan Garlic Salmon with Spinach and Tomato is full of flavor and goodness.
