Salmon Bella Donna - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 fresh salmon fillets
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    8 medium shrimp, uncooked, de-veined and cleaned (I left the tail on)
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    all-purpose flour, for dusting
    1/4 cup good vodka
    1 1/2 cups heavy cream
    1/2 cup parmesan cheese (better if you shred it)
    1 pinch nutmeg
    salt
    cracked pepper (to taste)
Preparation
    Season the salmon filets with salt and pepper and dredge in flour lightly.
    Heat a large saute pan and a good drizzle of olive oil to medium heat.
    Add the filets when the oil is hot and saute' for 3 minutes on each side.
    Add the vodka, garlic, nutmeg and shrimp to the pan and stir.
    Now add the cream and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes until cooked through.
    Finish the sauce with the parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
    I served this with fresh garlic asparagus and dinner salad. Next time I may serve the filets over pasta. If you like salmon and creamy sauce this recipe will not disappoint. Yum.
