How to Make Alfredo I Know It Was You Salmon W Alfredo Sauce Abs Diet

  1. Mince the garlic. In a sauté pan or skillet, heat olive oil over low-medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
