Best 3 Quick Pasta With Salmon And Tomatoes In Cream Sauce Recipes

CREAMY TOMATO SALMON PASTA

Steps:

• Put the pasta on first - place a large pan of water on to boil.
• When the water comes to the boil, add the pasta and simmer for 12-13 minutes, until cooked.
• Meanwhile, heat the 2 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat.
• Season the salmon fillets with the 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper. Place in the pan skin-side-up.
• Fry the salmon for 3 minutes, until golden, then turn the salmon over and move it to one side of the pan.
• Add the onions to the space left in the pan. Cook on a medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
• Stir in the minced garlic and cook for a further 30 seconds.
• Add in the passata, the 1 tbsp of tomato puree, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, and the 1 tsp of sugar. Stir together and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
• By now the pasta should be nearly ready. Add the spiralized courgette (zucchini) to the pan with the pasta for the last 30 seconds of cooking. Then drain the pasta in a colander, reserving a cup of the cooking water.
• Turn the salmon over in the frying pan. Remove the skin using a set of tongs and discard.
• Break up the salmon using the back of a fork into chunky pieces. Stir the 3 tbsp of cream into the sauce.
• Add the cooked spaghetti and spiralized courgette to the pan along with a good splash (about 1/4 cup) of the pasta cooking water.
• Use a set of tongs to toss the spaghetti in the sauce, distributing the pieces of salmon amongst the pasta.
• Add more of the pasta cooking water if you want to loosen up the sauce further (optional).
• Divide the pasta between bowls and top with a little grated parmesan, black pepper and a sprinkling of fresh basil leaves.

QUICK PASTA WITH SALMON AND TOMATOES IN CREAM SAUCE

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.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat while spaghetti is cooking and cook salmon and garlic until salmon is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and basil, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 3 minutes. Pour in cream and simmer over low heat until flavors are well combined and salmon is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve sauce over cooked pasta.

SALMON WITH TOMATO CREAM

Steps:

• Run your hand lightly over the fish to check for little pin bones. They can be pulled out with a tweezers or small pliers. Rub a heavy nonstick skillet with a little of the butter. Heat to very hot and sear the salmon over the high heat, about 2 minutes on each side, until lightly browned but not cooked through. Remove from the pan to a platter and cover lightly with foil to keep warm.
• Add the remaining butter to the pan, lower the heat to medium and saute the onion and garlic until soft but not brown. Add the wine, stir, and let it cook down briefly. Then stir in the cream. Raise the heat so the liquid concentrates and thickens a bit, then stir in the tomatoes. Cook over high heat another minute or so, just until the tomatoes soften. Then add the chives. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Add the lemon juice.
• Return the salmon and any juices from the platter to the pan. Reheat and baste briefly with the sauce. Then transfer the fish and sauce to a serving platter or to individual dinner plates. Serve at once.
