Creamy Garlic Shrimp Salmon

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add a touch more oil if needed, and sauté the shrimp for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside with the salmon.
3. Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.
4. Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to thicken slightly for 2-3 minutes.
5. Add the salmon and shrimp back into the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over the top. Simmer for another 2 minutes until heated through.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

Chef’s Tips

• Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the fish to get a perfect sear.
• Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference for a milder or stronger flavor.
• Pair with a light side salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
