➤4 salmon fillets
➤Salt and black pepper to taste

➤2 tablespoons butter
➤4 cloves garlic, minced
➤1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
➤2 cups baby spinach
➤1 cup heavy cream
➤1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
➤1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (or a blend of dried basil, oregano, and thyme)
➤Salt and black pepper to taste
➤Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Season and Cook the Salmon:
➔Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
➔Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
➔Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set it aside.
2. Prepare the Tuscan Butter Sauce:
➔In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
➔Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
➔Add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices.
➔Stir in the baby spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until wilted.
➔Pour in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until the sauce thickens, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
➔Season the sauce with dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
3. Combine the Salmon and Sauce:
➔Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet with the Tuscan butter sauce.
➔Spoon some of the sauce over the salmon to coat it.
➔Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon is heated through and the sauce is hot and creamy.

➔Garnish the Tuscan Butter Salmon with fresh basil leaves, if desired.
➔Serve the salmon and sauce hot with your choice of side dishes, such as pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables.
