Dry off the sockeye salmon fillet and cut it into fillets about 4 inches wide.

Mix together 1 teaspoon of basil, 1/4 teaspoon of rosemary, 1 teaspoon of oregano, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

Season the salmon fillets with the herb mixture and add paprika for color.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the salmon skin-side down.

Cook the salmon for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side until it reaches an internal temperature of 140 to 142°F.

Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, lower the heat and add diced onion, grape tomatoes, and minced garlic, sautéing until browned.

Add 1/4 cup of sundried tomatoes to the skillet and mix well.

Add a generous amount of spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted.

Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon (or add 1/4 cup of dry white wine) and mix.

Pour in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and keep the heat low to prevent splitting.

Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese and stir until melted, adjusting the amount based on desired cheesiness.

Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if the sauce thickens too much.

Return the salmon fillets to the skillet and warm them in the sauce for about 30 seconds.

Serve the salmon with the sauce poured over the top.
