Things to know about this Tuscan salmon for two

First the ingredient list is for two restaurant size portions. You can easily double the recipe to fit your how many you want to feed.

The other thing about salmon, don’t over cook it, it should be flaky and be sure to use a big enough saute pan so the fish isn’t crowded or the salmon wouldn’t be seared, it will be more like boiled YUCK!!!! Season the salmon just before cooking to prevent the salt from drawing out the moisture in the fish. Leave the juices in the pan, that’s where the flavor is. In the restaurant we use white wine to de glaze the pan. Salmon is great on it’s own, but when you add a creamy  sauce you get a super delicious dinner, your guest will think took hours to prepare. They won’t believe that this restaurant style salmon recipe comes together in less than 30 minutes. This recipe is as easy as a throw-together plain pasta dish. Actually cook up some pasta  el dente, it’s prefect served along side  the salmon, or toss the pasta in the creamy,  sauce for a complete dinner. This salmon dinner will look elegant on your table, when served in these beautiful white dinner plates food looks good on white plates, that’s the color we use at the restaurant.
