Things to Know About This Creamy Salmon Piccata Recipe

Ready in 30 minutes
Perfect for busy weeknights or when you want something special without spending hours in the kitchen.

Simple, everyday ingredients
No hard-to-find items here—this recipe uses pantry staples like lemon, garlic, cream, and capers, plus a few fresh additions.

A twist on a classic
Traditional piccata gets an upgrade with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and a splash of cream for a richer, more vibrant sauce.

Great with pasta
Serve over angel hair or spaghetti, or even with mashed potatoes or rice—anything to soak up that lemony cream sauce.

Customizable.
Not into sun-dried tomatoes or spinach? Leave them out and keep it classic. The sauce is still bright, buttery, and full of lemony goodness.

Don’t overcook the salmon!
For best results, cook the salmon just until it flakes easily but still has a hint of pink in the center. It stays juicy and tender that way.
