5: Melt the butter in the remaining juices in the pan.
6: Add in the garlic and fry until fragrant (about one minute).

8: Pour in the white wine (if using) and allow to reduce slightly.
9: Add the sun dried tomatoes and fry for 1-2 minutes.

11: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
12: Add the spinach leaves and allow to wilt in the sauce.
13: Add in the Parmesan cheese and allow to melt through the sauce.
14: If a thicker sauce is desired, add the milk/cornstarch mixture and continue to simmer while quickly stirring.
15: Add the salmon back into the pan, sprinkle with parsley, and spoon the sauce over each filet.
16: Serve over pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables.
