How to cook deliciously - Salmon Piccata

1. Stage

Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper and dredge in flour, shaking off any excess flour.

2. Stage

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Sear salmon until golden on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes a side. Transfer salmon to plate and tent with foil to keep warm while making sauce.

3. Stage

Melt butter in pan and stir in garlic. Cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in flour. Cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until lightly golden in color and bubbling slightly. Slowly whisk in wine to deglaze, scraping up any brown bits left on the bottom of the pan. Whisk in chicken stock and bring to a simmer and cook until thickened slightly, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, lemon slices, capers, and sun-dried tomatoes and season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. Stage

Return salmon to pan and let simmer in the sauce. Spoon sauce over salmon and let cook 3 to 4 minutes more. Garnish with parsley and serve.
