Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound penne pasta
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless salmon fillets
4 tablespoons salted butter
1 cup fresh asparagus tips
1 cup quartered artichoke hearts
½ cup chopped green onions
2 tablespoons minced garlic
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
¼ cup pesto
1 ½ cups grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water; set aside.
  • Meanwhile, cut salmon into small pieces.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add salmon and stir a few times. Add asparagus tips, artichoke hearts, green onions, garlic, salt, and pepper. Saute until salmon is almost cooked, garlic is golden, and asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add cream and bring to a boil. Stir in pesto. Boil until sauce is reduced by at least 1/4 to 1/2. Add penne and toss thoroughly to coat.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley and serve hot.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. The salmon is always cooked perfectly and the pesto sauce is so flavorful. The penne is a great addition and helps to soak up the sauce. I would definitely recommend this

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover salmon. I had some grilled salmon that I needed to use up and this recipe was perfect. The pesto sauce was flavorful and creamy and the penne was a great addition. I would definitely recommend this recipe
