Easy Salmon Pasta Recipes

EASY SMOKED SALMON PASTA

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly-salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir the linguine into the water and return to a boil. Cook uncovered until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of the water.
• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat; when the mixture begins to bubble, add the shallots and cook until softened. Stir the salmon, cream cheese, and milk into the shallot mixture. Mix the reserved water from the pasta into the mixture. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the pasta to serve.

EASY SALMON PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Coat salmon with olive oil and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until salmon is cooked through and no longer translucent, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the salmon is baking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, return to a rapid boil, and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, 11 to 13 minutes. Drain, rinse with cool water, and drain again. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Remove salmon from the oven, cool, and flake with a fork. Add to the pasta along with celery, mayonnaise, and walnuts. Mix all ingredients with a wooden spoon until well combined. Season with salt and pepper and add dill. Place in the refrigerator until chilled and flavors have combined, 2 hours to overnight.
