Ingredients

  • 400 g. salmon filet
  • 1 bunch of fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 lemon juice and zest
  • ¼ cup chicken or fish broth
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch dissolved in the broth
  • 1 tablespoon Italian herbs
  • 2 tablespoons of light butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Crush the garlic and finely chop the parsley and grate the lemon zest and squeeze out its juice.
  • Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes. Melt a teaspoon of butter in the skillet. Place the fillets in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, until they develop a golden crust. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set them aside to rest.
  • In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Pour in the chicken or fish broth with dissolved cornstarch. Add the chopped parsley, crushed garlic, Italian herbs, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Cook the mixture for about 3 minutes until it reaches a semi-creamy consistency.
  • Combine and Finish: Place the seared salmon fillets back into the skillet with the sauce. Spoon the herb sauce over the fillets. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, allowing the salmon to soak in the flavorful sauce.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Carefully transfer the herb-infused salmon fillets onto serving plates. Drizzle plenty of the herb sauce over the fillets. Serve alongside your preferred choice of broccoli, allowing the vibrant flavors to complement each other perfectly.
