Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 18 ounce salmon fillets about 6 ounce each
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 ounce cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons capers
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the fresh salmon, searing each side for about five minutes.
  • Once the salmon is cooked through, set aside and cover while you prepare the sauce.
  • In the same pan, saute minced garlic over medium heat until fragrant.
  • Add the heavy cream, cream cheese, lemon juice, and capers to the pan.
  • Bring to a light simmer, stirring frequently to thicken.
  • Once the sauce begins to thicken, add the salmon back in the pan and brush the cream sauce over the fillets.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, just to reheat the salmon.
  • Garnish with the fresh dill and grated Parmesan cheese.
