Garlic Butter Salmon with Spinach & Mushrooms

Garlic Butter Salmon with Spinach and Mushrooms is the kind of dish that feels indulgent yet comes together effortlessly. Crispy, golden salmon is paired with a rich garlic butter cream sauce that coats tender mushrooms and wilted spinach in pure comfort.

This recipe strikes a beautiful balance between elegance and ease. The salmon is simply seasoned and pan-seared to lock in flavor, while the creamy sauce builds quickly in the same skillet, absorbing all the savory bits left behind.

Mushrooms add earthiness, spinach brings freshness, and Parmesan lends just enough richness to round everything out without overwhelming the dish. The result is a restaurant-style meal you can enjoy at home in under 30 minutes.
