Step 1: Flavoring the Salmon : Firstly Dry the Salmon fillet with a paper towel and season both side with Salt and Paper.
Step 2: Cauterize the Salmon : Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium to high heat. Once the butter melted and bubbling, add the salmon fillets. Cook it for 4-5 minutes each side, or until it became golden brown and cooked through. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

Step 4: Deglaze the pan: Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, then pour in the broth or wine. Scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for atleast 1-2 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly.
Step 5: Make it creamy: Reduce the heat to low then Pour it in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.

Step 7: Combine and serve: Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over the top of each fillet. Let it simmer for another minute to heat the salmon through.
Step 8: Garnish: Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve warm with lemon wedges on the side!
