Salmon with Spinach in a Blue Cheese Cream Sauce
This delicious salmon dinner is a favorite of ours.
It's easy enough for a gourmet dinner anytime,
yet special enough for company.
If you love salmon, spinach and blue cheese,
you are in for a unique flavor combination!
You'll need fresh salmon fillets, one per person,
a bag of fresh spinach, a small container each
of heavy cream, and blue cheese,
garlic salt and pepper, and spaghetti or linguini.
Start boiling the salted water for the pasta.
Generously season the salmon fillets' top sides
with the garlic salt and pepper.
Saute the salmon, skin side down in a hot skillet
with a little olive oil or butter.
When you turn the salmon you will be able to
easily pull off the skin. Season again.
Turn to brown both sides. Do not cook completely
through. It should still be a little pink inside.
Remove from the pan and keep warm in a low heat
oven along with your dinner plates.
Add the spinach to the saute pan; season and
toss to cook for about 2 minutes.
Add the blue cheese.
Stir in the heavy cream and simmer gently
to heat through.
Return the salmon to the pan and spoon on
a little of the sauce. Remove from heat.
Plate the salmon on the pasta and top with spinach
blue cheese cream sauce.
Sooooo good!
