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).

Tips:
- Choose the freshest salmon possible. Fresh salmon will have a bright pink color and firm flesh.
- Sear the salmon skin-side down first. This will help to crisp up the skin and prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the salmon from burning.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the salmon will not cook evenly.
- Cook the salmon until it is cooked through. The salmon is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot out of the pan.
Conclusion:
Sugar-seared salmon with cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the cream sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
