This salmon with creamy artichoke sauce recipe appeared in last month's Sainsbury's magazine (at the time of adding this recipe, it's not appearing on the website yet). My eldest step son and his girlfriend gave us a lovely selection of foodie gifts at Christmas, and a jar of artichoke antipasto was one of them. David and I both love salmon, so thought this would be the perfect recipe to make use of some of the artichokes.
It was so good! The creamy artichoke sauce is totally full of flavour and absolutely delicious, and the method for cooking the salmon resulted in it being perfectly cooked. The baby new potatoes were so good with the lemon juice drizzled over them...the flavour balanced out the creamy sauce to a tee.
A delicious recipe that's ready in half an hour...perfect any night of the week!
Tips
- Leafy greens – I couldn’t get rainbow chard in our local supermarket, so I used cavalo nero instead.
- This salmon with creamy artichoke sauce recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.

How to make this Salmon with Creamy Artichoke Sauce
Ingredients
- 300g baby new potatoes, halved
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 tbsp oil (from the artichoke jar - see step 2)
- 2 salmon fillets (approx. 160g each)
- 1 echalion (banana) shallot, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 150ml fish or vegetable stock
- 125g drained artichoke antipasto, roughly chopped (retain the oil for step 2)
- 75g lighter soft cream cheese
- zest of half a lemon, plus 1 tbsp juice
- 100g rainbow chard, roughly chopped, or other leafy greens (see Tips)
- 20g parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water for 15 to 17 minutes, until tender. Drain, return to the pan and cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil (use the oil from the artichoke jar for extra flavour) on a high heat, in a lidded non-stick frying pan. Season the salmon and sear for 2 minutes on each side until golden (it will finish cooking in the sauce). Set aside on a plate.
- Reduce the heat, add the shallot and garlic and cook gentry for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the stock and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir the chopped artichokes into the pan along with the cream cheese and lemon zest. Add the chard or leafy greens, cover and allow to wilt for 3 minutes. Nestle in the salmon fillets and simmer gently, covered for 4 to 5 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked through. Remove from the heat and carefully stir the parmesan into the sauce around the salmon until it’s melted. Check the seasoning, to taste.
- Season the potatoes with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and sprinkle over the lemon juice. Serve with the salmon and creamy artichoke sauce.
