Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 small, finely diced shallot
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 0.5 cup white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.25 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp, chopped fresh dill
- 1 large lemon (for juice and zest)
- 1 tsp, or to taste salt
- 0.5 tsp, or to taste black pepper
- 16 oz egg noodles (optional, for serving)
- 1 tbsp, chopped (for garnish) fresh parsley
Instructions
Season the salmon fillets on both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, sear the salmon fillets skin-side down (if applicable) for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Sauté the diced shallots for 2-3 minutes until translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate slightly.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, sour cream, and fresh dill. Simmer the mixture gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid curdling.
Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice (about 1-2 teaspoons) and a pinch of lemon zest for brightness. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Allow them to warm through for another 2 minutes.
Optional: While preparing the salmon, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and toss with a bit of butter or olive oil.
Serve the Salmon Romanoff over a bed of egg noodles (if using) or alongside a fresh green salad for a lighter option. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and additional lemon zest, if desired.
