Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 oz / 250g dried fettuccine
3 tbsp / 50g unsalted butter
1 small shallot ((US) / eschallot (Australia), very finely minced (Note 1))
½ cup / 125 ml heavy cream ((Note 2))
¾ cup / 185 ml freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano or parmesan ((Notes 3 and 4))
¼ teaspoon salt
Good grind of black pepper
6-7 oz / 180 - 200g hot smoked salmon fillet (, flaked (Note 5))
Fresh parsley ((optional))
Extra Parmigiano Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente (still firm but just cooked through). (Note 6)
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a deep fry pan over medium high heat. (Note 7)
  • Add the shallots and sauté for 2 minutes or until tender.
  • Add the cream and bring to boil. Turn heat down to medium low and simmer for 3 minutes.
  • Remove the fry pan from the heat and stir through the Parmigiano Reggiano, salt and pepper until the sauce is smooth.
  • TAKE OUT 1/2 cup of pasta water PLUS scoop out an extra mug (extra, just in case). Then drain the pasta in a colander.
  • Transfer the pasta and 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water into the fry pan with the sauce. Add salmon. Return the fry pan to the stove over medium heat. Toss very gently to coat the pasta in the sauce and allow the sauce to emulsify (Note 6) for 1 1/2 - 2 minutes, until the sauce coats the pasta - there should be no sauce pooled at the bottom of the skillet. (Note 7)
  • Remove from the stove and serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh parsley, if using.

Tips:

  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: Opt for fresh, good-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor in your pasta Alfredo with salmon. Fresh salmon fillets, quality Parmesan cheese, and flavorful herbs will elevate the dish.
  • Cook the Salmon Perfectly: Don't overcook the salmon, as it can become dry and tough. Cook it until it is just opaque in the center, as it will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the heat.
  • Make a Smooth and Creamy Sauce: To achieve a smooth and creamy Alfredo sauce, use a combination of heavy cream, butter, and grated Parmesan cheese. Whisk the sauce constantly over low heat to prevent it from curdling.
  • Season to Taste: Don't forget to season the sauce with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little spice.
  • Garnish Before Serving: Before serving, garnish the pasta with freshly chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, and a squeeze of lemon juice for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Conclusion:

Cheesy pasta Alfredo with salmon is a delicious and comforting dish that combines the richness of the Alfredo sauce with the delicate flavor of salmon.

Whether you're cooking for a special occasion or a casual weeknight dinner, this dish is sure to impress your family and friends.
