Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Sear the salmon in the hot pan for 3-5 minutes on each side. Remove the salmon from the pan and set them aside.
Melt the butter in the skillet and saute the garlic until fragrant. Add the broth. Let it come to a simmer then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the sauce simmer until the broth reduces by half.
Mix the cream into the pan. Add salt and pepper. Once the sauce is simmering again stir in the parmesan cheese. Continue to simmer and stir until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.
Add the salmon back to the pan to reheat for a minute or two. Top with parsley and lemon slices. Serve with steamed vegetables or mashed cauliflower. Enjoy!
