{NEW} Simple Salmon Piccata ??? ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
A super IMPRESSIVE Sunday Dinner idea that is pretty darn easy to make!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
If you’ve been a friend of CFC for a while, you probably know that piccata has my heart as THE ULTIMATE “nicer” meal idea for “date-night in”, Sunday dinner, company, or holidays.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
It’s just my fave!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
This entire meal can come together in under a half an hour, but you’ll receive praise as if you just cooked for HOURS!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I typically only make this dish when I’m perusing the meat & seafood counters and notice wild-caught salmon is on SALE….then it’s on!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Serve over rice, with a side of roasted broccoli ?⠀⠀
⠀⠀
makes 4 servings⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Ingredients: 4 ,5 or 6-ounce wild caught salmon fillets⠀⠀
sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste, about 1/4 teaspoon each ⠀⠀
2 Tbsps ghee, or clarified grass fed butter ⠀⠀
3 fresh garlic cloves, minced ⠀⠀
1/2 cup white wine⠀⠀
1/2 cup chicken bone broth⠀⠀
1 Tbsp gluten free flour or potato starch ⠀⠀
4 Tbsps capers⠀⠀
juice of 1 fresh lemon⠀⠀
zest of 1 small fresh lemon ⠀⠀
fresh parsley leaves, chopped⠀⠀
additional fresh lemon slices to garnish⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Instructions:⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Sprinkle your salmon with sea salt and pepper, then rub it in on both sides. ⠀⠀
Melt the ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. ⠀⠀
Add in your salmon fillets and cook for 4 minutes on each side, or just until cooked through and flaky. ⠀⠀
Remove salmon from pan, and set aside on a large platter. Cover.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
In that same pan, add in your minced garlic and cook about 1 minute. ⠀⠀
Stir in your white wine and simmer until wine is reduced a bit, about 3 minutes.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk your broth with the flour/starch until well combined.⠀⠀
Pour this mixture into the hot pan while stirring until everything is combined.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Finally, stir in capers, lemon juice and your fresh lemon zest. ⠀⠀
Bring everything to a low simmer and stir constantly until sauce thickens, about a minute.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Return the salmon back into your skillet, and cook for a couple of minutes
