🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Season salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add salmon fillets skin-side down and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.

Remove salmon from skillet and set aside on a plate.

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and chopped onion, sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Pour in white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Stir in heavy cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest, mixing well.

Add capers and simmer the sauce until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.

Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.

Return the salmon to the skillet, spoon sauce over the top, and heat through for 1-2 minutes.

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
