Lemon Pasta With Salmon Recipes

LEMON-GARLIC PASTA WITH SALMON

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.
• Combine oil, garlic, anchovy paste, crushed red pepper, lemon zest and lemon juice in a large skillet. Heat over medium-high heat until sizzling, about 3 minutes. Add the reserved water, the pasta, salmon, parsley and salt. Cook, stirring, until the sauce coats the pasta, about 2 minutes. Serve topped with breadcrumbs.

LIGHT LEMON GARLIC PASTA WITH SALMON

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, season salmon with salt and pepper to taste and bake at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes, depending on thickness.
• Once the pasta is cooked, drain and toss with garlic, olive oil, basil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add lemon juice, zest and capers to the pasta and toss to mix.
• Flake the salmon into bite-size pieces.
• Gently toss salmon with the pasta.
• Dish and serve hot topped with freshly grated or shaved Parmesan cheese.

BAKED LEMON-BUTTER SALMON WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Lightly salt and pepper salmon fillet on both sides, and place in a 2-quart baking dish. Squeeze 1 lemon half over the salmon, then sprinkle with minced garlic and 1/2 of the butter pieces.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• When salmon is cooked, break apart into large chunks (it will break apart a little further when you toss it with the pasta.)
• Add cooked pasta to the baking dish with the salmon. Drizzle pasta and salmon with olive oil, and add remaining butter pieces. Zest the remaining lemon half and add to the pasta, then squeeze juice from the zested lemon into the pasta as well. Add parsley, salt, and pepper.
• Toss everything gently until pasta is well coated in the pan juices and everything you have added in, and salmon is evenly distributed amongst the pasta. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add a touch more butter or oil if needed, if your pasta is too dry.

SALMON AND LEMON PASTA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot and garlic, cook one minute.
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Place in the skillet and cook 5 minutes. Turn the salmon and add the white wine, cover and cook an additional 5 minutes.
• Remove salmon and cover to keep warm. Reduce heat to a simmer and zest the lemon into the skillet. Halve and squeeze the juice from the lemon into the skillet. Allow to simmer until reduce slightly, roughly 5 minutes.
• Salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the parsley and toss the pasta into the sauce until completely coated.
