Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the salmon fillets and cook for around 3-4 minutes on each side until they're golden brown and just cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and butter. Once melted, add the cauliflower rice and garlic powder. SautΓ© for about 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower rice is tender. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Transfer the cauliflower rice to a baking dish.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine heavy cream and cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper if necessary.
Place the cooked salmon on top of the cauliflower rice in the baking dish. Pour the cream sauce over the salmon and cauliflower rice evenly.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
