Salmon pasta without cream is a super light and flavorful dish that’s perfect for a weeknight dinner, as it’s quick and easy to prepare and goes well with almost any side dish.
Cook the pasta: In a large pot of salted water, cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions, then drain it (DON'T overcook the pasta).
120 g uncooked pasta,
Now, dry the salmon with a paper towel, then sprinkle it with salt and pepper and dredge it in the flour.
226 g fresh salmon fillets, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ½ cup all purpose flour
Cook the salmon: Heat both oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the salmon and cook it for about 2-3 minutes on each side; take it out of the skillet and set it aside.
Add chicken broth, lemon juice and garlic into the skillet over medium heat and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes; then add the salmon back into the skillet and break it up with your wooden spoon into bite-size pieces.
½ cup chicken broth, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 4 cloves garlic,
Cook it for a few more minutes until it's fully cooked; toss the pasta into the skillet, garnish with parsley and serve.
1 tablespoon fresh parsley,
Notes
I highly recommend using small-shaped pasta so it pairs well with the salmon pieces and makes the dish easier to eat.
