Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh salmon fillets at local fish markets or the seafood counter of major supermarkets. Fresh mushrooms, heavy cream, and pantry staples like garlic and butter are readily available in the fresh produce and dairy aisles of any local grocery store. If heavy cream is unavailable, a high-fat cooking cream is a suitable substitute.
Preparation method
- Season the salmon fillets with the crushed garlic, salt, lime juice, and black pepper.
- Let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Sear the salmon fillets for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the salmon is searing, prepare the sauce.
- In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until lightly browned.
- Pour the heavy cream into the pan with the mushrooms.
- Simmer the sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken.
- Season the sauce with salt and white pepper to taste.
- Serve the seared salmon fillets drizzled with the warm mushroom cream sauce.
