Salmon fillets simmered in creamy sundried tomato sauce with herbs, garlic, and parmesan for an easy, elegant dish.

# What You Need:

→ Main

01 - 3 to 4 salmon fillets, skin removed

→ Seasonings

02 - 1 teaspoon dried basil
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
06 - 3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
07 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
08 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

→ Sauce and Cooking

09 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
10 - 1 cup unsalted chicken stock
11 - 1/2 cup heavy cream
12 - 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
13 - 5 garlic cloves, minced
14 - 1/2 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese

# How to Make It:

01 - In a small bowl, combine the dried basil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper until evenly mixed.
02 - Rub half of the seasoning mixture evenly onto both sides of the salmon fillets.
03 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon fillets flesh side down, searing each side for approximately 5 minutes until golden. Remove salmon from skillet and set aside.
04 - Lower heat to medium, add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and minced garlic to the same skillet. Optionally, incorporate a splash of the sun-dried tomato oil. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant.
05 - Add chicken stock to the skillet, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Stir in heavy cream, shredded Parmesan, and remaining seasoning mixture. Mix well.
06 - Increase heat to medium-low and simmer the sauce for 10 to 15 minutes, allowing it to thicken. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.
07 - Nestle the salmon fillets back into the sauce. Spoon sauce over fillets and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, depending on desired doneness. Three minutes yields medium, five minutes for well done.
08 - Transfer to serving plates, spooning sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh basil if desired and serve hot.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For enhanced flavor, use some oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes when sautéing aromatics.
