Categories     dinner

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound long, flat pasta, such linguine, fettuccini, or tagliatelle
6 ounces smoked salmon, cut into pieces
6 tablespoons (3 ounces) butter
2 lemons, zested and juiced
2/3 cup heavy cream

kosher salt

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until just shy of al dente. Drain, reserving some pasta water.
  • While the water is boiling, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon, lemon juice, half of the lemon zest, and half of the chives. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cream and cook over low heat (the cream should be at a simmer) for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the drained pasta to the cream mixture. Cook for a few minutes, tossing to coat. Taste for seasoning. If the pasta looks a little dry, add pasta water a tablespoon or two at a time until it is creamy enough.
  • Serve immediately, topped with the remaining chives and lemon zest.

CREAMY PASTA WITH SMOKED SALMON, ARUGULA AND LEMON



Creamy Pasta With Smoked Salmon, Arugula and Lemon image

One selling point of smoked salmon is that you don't need to do much to it to get it on the table. Fold it on top of toast and dab it with sour cream and you have the lazy man's cocktail party. But take the salmon one or two steps further and you break out of the cliché. Salmon's buttery fat and smoke serve as useful flavoring elements. In this easy 15-minute meal, it's chopped up and used as a counterweight in pasta tossed with full-fat Greek yogurt, arugula, fresh dill, lemon zest and juice. It is, at once, lively and comforting.

Time 15m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
3/4 pound casarecci, gemelli or gigli pasta
1 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 pound smoked salmon, cut into bite-size pieces
1 clove garlic, smashed and chopped
Zest and juice of 1 Meyer lemon (or a regular lemon)
2 cups packed arugula
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
Coarsely ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salty water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta. While it cooks, combine in a large serving bowl the yogurt, salmon, garlic, lemon zest and juice, arugula and dill. Just before the pasta is finished cooking, scoop out 1/2 cup pasta water and reserve.
  • Drain the pasta and slide it into the bowl. Using two spoons, toss the pasta and sauce as you would a salad. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water. Season to taste with salt and grind a generous amount of pepper on top.
