Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Place the salmon skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
- Carefully flip the salmon fillets and add the halved cherry tomatoes around them. Cook for another 2 minutes.
- Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, then sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
- Add spinach or kale to the skillet for extra greens and nutrition.
