  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Sauce Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Salmon Ingredients

  • 1 pound salmon fillets
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Minced fresh parsley, optional for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sauce: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the white wine, chicken broth, capers, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Allow it to cook and slightly reduce for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the unsalted butter one tablespoon at a time until the sauce is creamy. Simmer for an additional minute before removing the skillet from heat.
  2. Season and Sear the Salmon: Season the salmon fillets evenly with salt and pepper. In a separate oven-safe large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin side down in the hot oil. Cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until the skin becomes crispy and golden.
  3. Roast the Salmon: Flip the salmon fillets carefully. Pour the prepared piccata sauce over the top of the salmon in the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 6-10 minutes until the salmon reaches your desired doneness or an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 145°F.
  4. Serve: Plate the salmon fillets and spoon additional sauce from the skillet over the top. Garnish with minced fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately for a delicious meal.

Notes

  • Use an oven-safe skillet to avoid transferring the salmon after searing.
  • To ensure crispy skin, do not move the salmon fillets while cooking skin-side down on the stove.
  • Fresh lemon juice is key for authentic piccata flavor, but you can adjust to taste.
  • White wine can be substituted with additional chicken broth if preferred.
  • Check doneness carefully to avoid overcooking the salmon for the best texture.
