3. Pick and chop parsley leaves. Drain salmon and pat dry with paper towel. Brush salmon with 1 tbsp. olive oil, coat with spice blend and season well with salt and pepper.
4. Heat 1 tbsp. olive oil in a small pot over medium. Once hot, add shallots and cook 12 minutes until tender and golden. Add balsamic vinegar to taste, sauce blend, sugar and remaining garlic. Bring to a low boil and cook 12 minutes until sauce is reduced by a third. Stir in cream and cook 12 more minutes or until desired sauce consistency is reached.
