Garlic Cream Sauce Recipe 

This creamy Garlic Cream Sauce is the perfect accompaniment for seafood, especially salmon. With rich butter, aromatic garlic, and a splash of white wine, the sauce is smooth and luxurious, bringing out the natural flavors of the fish. A hint of lemon and Parmesan cheese adds depth, making it a crowd-pleasing addition to any meal.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika 
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or dill, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Sauté the Garlic: In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.
   
   
2. Deglaze with Wine: Add the white wine to the pan, scraping any bits off the bottom of the skillet. Let the wine simmer for 2-3 minutes until it reduces slightly.
   
   
3. Add the Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
   
   
4. Finish the Sauce: Stir in the lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika (if using), and Parmesan cheese. Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
   
   
5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley or dill. Serve over grilled or baked salmon, shrimp, or any seafood of your choice.

This garlic cream sauce is a simple yet elegant way to enhance the flavor of your seafood dishes, making every bite a rich and satisfying experience.
