Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 ounces (1.5 lbs) salmon fillet, skin on or off, cut into 4-6 portions
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper, divided
  • 2 tablespoons garlic infused oil, divided
  • 1 medium zucchini (200g), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 2 ounces lactose-free or regular cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon low-FODMAP Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup (1.5 oz) chopped fresh basil, plus to garnish

Instructions

  • Pat salmon dry and sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper
  • Heat 1 tablespoon infused oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat
  • Add the salmon, and cook until the underside is browned and releases easily from the pan, 3 to 4 minutes
  • Flip the salmon and continue to cook until opaque in the center, and seared on the top, another 2 to 3 minutes
  • Remove from pan to a plate to keep warm
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon garlic infused oil and zucchini to the pan. Cook, stirring, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes
  • Increase heat to medium-high and add wine, then stir until mostly evaporated
  • Add canned tomatoes, stirring to incorporate, then the LF Italian seasoning and remaining 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper
  • Once combined, mix in the lactose-free cream cheese
    • If desired, smash the tomatoes as the sauce is cooking for a smoother consistency
  • Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the cream cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes
  • Taste, and add seasoning, if desired
  • Stir in fresh basil, then return the salmon to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce
  • Serve, garnished with additional basil
