Marry Me Salmon Pasta Recipe
Report
Tender, juicy salmon in a creamy sun-dried tomato garlic sauce with handfuls of fresh basil is one of the best dinners you'll ever make. I love Marry Me Salmon with pasta and a salad - it's just so good.

Instructions
- Dry the salmon with a paper towel and then sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper evenly over both sides.
- Heat the butter and oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon, top side down, and sear until it has turned golden, about 4 minutes. Remove it from the pan.
- Add the Italian seasoning and garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour the wine and chicken stock into the pan and bring it to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove any stuck-on bits. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the whipping cream, and bring to a simmer. Let it simmer until the sauce begins to thicken, about 4 minutes.
- Stir in the sun dried tomatoes and parmesan cheese and then return the salmon, seared side facing up. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, until the salmon is fully cooked. Serve with fresh basil sprinkled over the top.
Notes
- Note 1: I like to remove the salmon skin prior to cooking this recipe. If you'd rather, you can leave it on and peel it off after the salmon is cooked.
- Note 2: I like to use the oil that is in the jar of sun dried tomatoes to give this recipe even more flavor. Make sure to keep any remaining sun-dried tomatoes covered with oil by pouring olive oil into the jar.
- Note 3: If you don't want to use wine, you can replace it with chicken stock.
- Note 4: I find that sun-dried tomatoes can vary in flavor—some are very strong, while others are mild. If you're unsure and don't want to go overboard, use less and add more to taste. If you're a big fan, add up to 1 cup.
