Instructions

Sauté Salmon

  • Rinse salmon filet and pat dry.
  • Using a cutting board, slice salmon into rectangular shapes or a manageable size for sautéing in a skillet.
  • On both sides, sprinkle salmon with Italian seasoning, lemon pepper, paprika, and creole seasoning.
  • On medium heat, drizzle olive oil in a nonstick skillet to help keep salmon from sticking.

  • On medium heat, in the same skillet, add butter, olive oil, and minced garlic.
  • Add sliced bell pepper, spinach, chicken bouillon, red pepper flakes, 2 cups of water, and simmer for approximately 7 minutes or until the water has cooked down.
