Salmon with cream cheese sauce


Eating carnivore does not mean your fish has to be bland! First of all, this sauce is so simple to make it feels weird writing a recipe for it. But it's tangy flavor is the perfect addition to fish such as salmon.


A lot of fish recipes include lemon or some other sour taste to complement the fish, but in this recipe, that's achieved with the cream cheese.

 

Ingredients

- 4 ounces cream cheese

- 1/2 cup chicken stock

- salt

- pepper (optional)



Instructions

- Add all ingredients to a small spot and whisk at medium heat until combined and creamy.


 

This sauce would be a great addition to chicken or any fish but I prepared it with salmon.


Since I had very thin salmon fillets, I cooked them by heating my cast iron pan to medium high heat and then adding some butter. Once melted, I seared the fillets for about a minute on each side.


For a thicker fish fillet you can use an oven-sear technique like for steaks. In an oven safe pan, sear at medium high heat for a couple minutes on each side, then immediately transfer to your oven pre-heated to 425 degrees for 6-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillet.
