Cheesecake Factory Salmon Lemon Sauce Recipe

If you’re a fan of the Cheesecake Factory, you’ve likely tasted their famous herb-crusted salmon with lemon sauce.
This lemon sauce balances creaminess with a fresh citrus kick/ (I make sure to stir in fresh lemon juice gradually, tasting as you go).
My family likes to to pair the salmon with roasted veggies or a simple salad for a simple but yummy meal.
