Creamy Pasta with Salmon image

There was a lot of kitchen improv involved in the making of this recipe! It works as a seafood dish or a pasta dish. It's served with a dilly sour cream sauce!

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (8 ounce) package spaghetti
2 medium (blank)s lemon, juiced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ pound salmon fillet
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package fresh green beans, trimmed and halved
1 large shallot, minced
¼ cup sour cream
1 bunch chopped fresh dill
1 cup garden cress, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • While pasta cooks, pour enough water into a frying pan to cover salmon; add dill. Strain in lemon juice. Mix and season with salt and pepper. Add salmon to the pan and poach over medium-high heat, flipping as necessary, until it flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Remove the skin when you flip it the first time.
  • At the same time, heat olive oil in a pan over medium to medium-high heat. Saute green beans and shallots until the shallots start to brown and the green beans soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Once the salmon is poached, use tongs to set it aside in a shallow bowl, but don't throw the poaching mixture away. Take about 1/4 cup of the poaching mixture and add it to a saucepan. Add sour cream and chopped dill and mix over medium heat until combined. Remove from heat and mix into pasta.
  • Place pasta on serving plates, along with some chunks of the salmon, plus some of the sauteed mixture. Try to get an even mix if possible. Sprinkle with garden cress. Serve immediately!

I followed the recipe exactly, but the sauce was too thin. I had to add more flour to thicken it up.

This was a quick and easy recipe to make. The salmon was a little overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try it again with a lower cooking temperature.
