Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound salmon fillets skinless
  • 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.

  5. Return the salmon and shrimp to the skillet, gently coating them with the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.
