Why This Recipe Works
This easy creamy garlic butter salmon recipe is an impressive 20-minute meal that’s full of rich, herby flavor. If you’re a fan of my Seared Salmon Avocado Salad, you’ll love this new recipe.

The salmon is pan-seared for a crispy crust and a buttery, tender interior. You can also bake the salmon following the instructions in my Keto Baked Salmon Recipe.
The sauce is made in the same skillet as the salmon for a one-pan meal like this One-Pan Mozzarella Chicken In Tomato Sauce.
It is naturally keto and gluten-free.
This is a great recipe for entertaining. Serve it with Keto Broccoli Bacon Salad for a complete meal.


What Goes Into This Recipe
Raw salmon. Choose pre-portioned salmon fillets with the skin on or off.
Olive oil. This will help crisp up the salmon and cook the aromatics.
Butter. For added fats to this keto salmon recipe and rich flavor.
Garlic. If you’re out of fresh garlic, you can use 1 teaspoon of powdered garlic.
Fish stock. You can make your own or use store-bought. Chicken or vegetable stock will also work.
Heavy cream. For the rich and creamy sauce.
Fresh dill. Another herb like basil, oregano or parsley will also be delicious with this garlic butter salmon recipe.
Crushed red pepper flakes. Use as much spice as you like!


Ingredient Swaps
If you don’t have everything listed above, here are a few simple swaps to make this recipe:

Salmon: Use any fish fillet like sea bass, tilapia, or cod. Make sure you cook it according to its thickness. Sea bass, for example, is thinner than salmon, so it will cook faster.
Butter: Use ghee or clarified butter if you prefer. Or vegan butter for a dairy-free keto salmon recipe.
Heavy cream: Use vegan cream or coconut cream for a dairy-free version.
Dill: Use any herbs of choice like parsley, cilantro, oregano or thyme.


Expert Tips
Make sure the stock and cream are at room temperature when you add them to the skillet. Otherwise, the dairy may curdle.
Wait until the butter is bubbling over medium-high heat before you add the stock and cream. Then use a whisk or a wooden spoon to continuously stir until the sauce has emulsified. It should come together into a creamy sauce in less than 2 minutes.
I recommend having all of the ingredients prepped and on hand before you start cooking. Smash the garlic, chop the dill, measure out your chili flakes. I’m pretty quick in the kitchen and just go with the flow, but for this type of sauce, too much cooking will make the fats separate.
When you add the salmon into the sauce, keep a close eye on it to avoid overcooking. It just needs to simmer in the sauce for 1 minute to heat through before serving.
