- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tbsp of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine with the garlic and butter. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Add the grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Return the salmon to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until heated through and the salmon is coated with the creamy sauce.
4. Serve:
- Serve the salmon fillets on a plate, spooning extra creamy garlic Parmesan sauce over the top.
- Serve with the vibrant turmeric rice on the side, and garnish the salmon with fresh parsley if desired.
Tips:
- Rice alternatives: If you don’t have basmati rice, you can use any long-grain rice. Quinoa or cauliflower rice could also be great alternatives.
- Make it lighter: For a lighter sauce, you can substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half or use a combination of cream cheese and chicken broth for a lower-fat option.
- Extra veggies: You can serve this dish with sautéed spinach, roasted vegetables, or a side salad for added nutrients and color.
