Tips:
To ensure even cooking, use salmon fillets of similar thickness.
If you don’t have heavy cream, you can substitute it with milk or a mixture of milk and cornstarch.
Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
For a crispier skin, broil the salmon for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
