Steps:
- Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
- Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
- Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
- Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
- Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
- Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
- Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).

SIMPLE LEMON-HERB ROASTED SALMON
This go-to recipe uses a fish's best friends: butter, herbs and lemon.

LEMON HERBED SALMON
We sometimes send our delicious Washington salmon all the way to Michigan for my sister to use in this family-favorite dish! The tasty topping can be used on other types of fish, too. Fresh thyme from your garden really sparks the flavor. -Perlene Hoekema Lynden, Washington

ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS
This is a great last-minute dinner. I can pick up the salmon on the way home, and I've usually got some herbs in the garden, and the rest of the ingredients in the pantry. Roasting is so much less stressful than grilling and the salmon stays very moist.

HERBED SALMON FILLETS
From Canadian Living Rush Hour Cookbook, 1985. I made it for dinner the other night and my husband loved it. The best part is that it is ready in no time. If you don't care about salmon, you can use sole, flounder or haddock instead. I'll double the sauce the next time I make it as it is delicious over steamed rice.

SALMON ROASTED IN BUTTER
This simple fish dish is best made with wild salmon, but it works equally well with the farmed sort. It's astonishingly easy. In a hot oven, melt butter in a skillet until it sizzles, add the salmon, flip, remove the skin, then allow to roast a few minutes more. You'll have an elegant fish dinner in about 15 minutes. Don't be afraid to play with herb and fat combinations: parsley, chervil or dill work well with butter; thyme, basil or marjoram with olive oil; or peanut oil with cilantro or mint.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Place the butter and half the herb in a roasting pan just large enough to fit the salmon and place it in the oven. Heat about 5 minutes, until the butter melts and the herb begins to sizzle.
- Add the salmon to the pan, skin side up. Roast 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, then peel the skin off. (If the skin does not lift right off, cook 2 minutes longer.) Sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn the fillet over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper again.
- Roast 3 to 5 minutes more, depending on the thickness of the fillet and the degree of doneness you prefer. Cut into serving portions, spoon a little of the butter over each and garnish with the remaining herb. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:
- To ensure the salmon fillets cook evenly, they should be of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a sharp knife to trim any uneven edges.
- The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets and the desired level of doneness. To check for doneness, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily, it is cooked through.
- If you do not have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Use about 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh.
- Serve the herbed salmon fillets immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
This recipe for herbed salmon fillets is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The simple combination of herbs, lemon, and butter enhances the natural flavor of the salmon without overpowering it. Whether you are new to cooking salmon or are looking for a new way to prepare it, this recipe is sure to please.
