Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 salmon fillets skin removed
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 brown onion finely chopped
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp fresh chili chopped, or red chili flakes, more to taste
  • 1 anchovy fillet in oil
  • 3 tbsp double-concentrated tomato paste
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 ⅔ cups crushed tomatoes
  • 3.5 ounces spinach
  • 1.5 ounces grated Parmesan
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley

Instructions
 

  • Get all the prep done before you start cooking: finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel, season both sides with 1 tsp salt and black pepper.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add salmon and sear, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Reduce heat to low. Add onion and garlic, cook for 2 minutes, or until soft and fragrant. Stir in anchovy, red chili, the remaining salt and pepper, oregano, sage and paprika. Add tomato paste, stir to incorporate, about 1 minute. Deglaze with chicken broth, simmer for 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon while scraping up the brown bits on the bottom of the skillet. Pour in crushed tomatoes, simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add spinach and simmer until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir in grated Parmesan and transfer salmon back to the skillet. Allow to cook for 3 more minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through. If needed, thin with additional broth.
  • Serve topped with red pepper flakes, freshly ground black pepper and chopped parsley. Enjoy!
