Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (24 fl oz)
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup vodka
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
2 cups flaked broiled salmon
10 oz capellini (angel-hair pasta; about two thirds of a 1-lb box)

Steps:

  • Cook onion in oil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened (but not browned), about 6 minutes. Add broth, cream, vodka, and salt and boil over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced to 2 cups, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in dill, lemon zest and juice, and pepper. Reserve 1/2 cup sauce, then add salmon to saucepan and cook over moderately low heat until fish is just heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • While fish is heating, cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta-cooking water, then drain pasta in a colander. Return pasta to pot, then toss with reserved sauce and cooking water. Serve pasta immediately with fish and sauce spooned over the top.

This was the worst dish I've ever eaten. The sauce was bland and the salmon was dry. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using a lighter sauce next time.

I'm not a big fan of salmon, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was light and flavorful, and the salmon was cooked perfectly.

This dish was a disaster! The sauce curdled and the salmon was overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

The sauce was a bit too heavy for my taste, but the salmon was cooked perfectly. I would try this recipe again with a lighter sauce.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The sauce is so good that I've even used it on other dishes, like chicken and shrimp.
