Ingredients

• 4 pieces Salmon fillets
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.75 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 12 ounces Egg noodles
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, sear the salmon fillets skin-side down for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and chicken broth. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 5

Add the fresh spinach to the sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted.

Step 6

Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain the noodles and set aside.

Step 7

Stir the cooked noodles into the creamy spinach sauce, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 8

Add the lemon juice to the skillet and stir gently to incorporate. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Step 9

Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the creamy noodles and spinach.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.
