Creamy Salmon and Asparagus Pasta image

This salmon and asparagus pasta is simple to make, and you will love the lemony garlic cream sauce. Ready in about 30 minutes!

Provided by Natasha Bull

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces uncooked pasta
1 bunch asparagus (ends trimmed)
1 pound fresh salmon
Salt & pepper (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon lemon juice + zest from 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup heavy/whipping cream

Steps:

  • Boil a salted pot of water for your pasta. Cook it al dente according to package directions.
  • Meanwhile, trim your asparagus (I cut about 1.5" of the ends off while the asparagus is still tied up in a bunch to make it easy). Cut it into smaller pieces. Prep your other ingredients and sprinkle the salmon with salt & pepper and the Italian seasoning.
  • Add the butter and oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon for 3 minutes/side and then take it out of the pan and set it aside.
  • Add the asparagus to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes (3 minutes if it's on the thicker side or you like it softer).
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add the lemon juice + zest, cream, and parmesan to the pan. Give it a good stir then add the salmon back. Break it up into smaller pieces with your spoon. Cook the sauce for another few minutes until the salmon is fully cooked through, the asparagus is tender, and the sauce has reduced a bit. The sauce is not meant to be very thick in this recipe. Toss the sauce with the drained pasta and serve immediately.

SALMON AND ASPARAGUS PASTA



Salmon and Asparagus Pasta image

Dry sauce mix combines with asparagus and salmon to make a dish that will impress your friends--and you don't have to tell them how easy it is! Mezzi rigatoni is my favorite kind of pasta to use with this one, but ziti, penne, and other hearty pasta cuts will work just as well. Serve with Parmesan cheese.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup chopped fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley
½ medium white onion, chopped
2 medium lemons, juiced, divided
1 (8 ounce) fresh salmon fillet
1 (16 ounce) package rigatoni pasta
1 ½ cups milk
1 tablespoon salted butter
1 (1.6 oz) package Sauce, CPC, KNORR Alfredo Sauce, dry mix
1 cup chopped fresh asparagus
1 clove garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Combine wine, olive oil, parsley, onion, and juice of 1 lemon in a large skillet over medium heat until simmering. Place salmon on top, with scales down. Cover and poach until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook rigatoni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and cover to keep warm.
  • Combine milk, butter, and sauce mix in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk constantly until boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, whisking frequently, until thickened, about 4 minutes.
  • Fill a small skillet with 1/4 inch water, remaining lemon juice, and garlic; bring to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam, checking frequently to avoid overcooking, until bright green and tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Flake poached salmon and add to warm pasta. Add sauce and asparagus; toss to combine.

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound fresh asparagus, medium thickness
Salt
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 tablespoon minced shallots
1 cup heavy cream
4 ounces smoked salmon sliced 1/4-inch thick
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
9 to 10 ounces fresh green fettuccine noodles
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • Snap off the ends of the asparagus where they break naturally and peel the stalks. Cut the asparagus on a slant to pieces about an inch long.
  • Steam the asparagus until they are just barely tender and still bright green, about three minutes. Rinse under cold water, drain well on paper towels and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.
  • While the water is coming to a boil, melt the butter in a large heavy skillet. Add the shallots and saute until soft but not brown. Stir in the cream and simmer about five minutes, until the cream has thickened somewhat.
  • Cut the salmon into slivers, add it to the cream and remove the skillet from the heat. Season with pepper and lemon juice. Add the asparagus.
  • When the pot of water is boiling, add the fettuccine, stir it once or twice, then cook two to three minutes after the water has returned to a boil. Drain well.
  • Briefly reheat the sauce. Transfer the fettuccine to a warm serving bowl, pour the sauce over it and toss. Sprinkle with dill and serve.

SALMON AND ASPARAGUS PASTA



Salmon and Asparagus Pasta image

Adapted from a recipe by Joy Manning and Tara Mataraza at Serious Eats. This is a variation on carbonara, using the heat of the pasta to gently cook the liaison of eggs and cheese into a delicate custardy sauce. Cascarecce is a scroll-shaped pasta, perfect for a thick sauce like this, if you can find it.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb cooked salmon (poached, roasted, grilled, etc) or 1/2 lb cooked arctic char (poached, roasted, grilled, etc)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 bunch thin asparagus spear, cut into 1-inch pieces
5 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons milk or 2 tablespoons cream
1/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1 lb gemelli pasta or 1 lb casarecce pasta
coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Flake the fish with a fork or your fingers and set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
  • Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onions and sweat them for about 2 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the asparagus and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, until the asparagus is just tender.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk and cheese together in a large mixing bowl. Set the bowl next to the sink to access immediately after draining the pasta.
  • Drop the pasta in the boiling water and cook to al dente. Drain, shake firmly 2 or 3 times to eliminate excess water, and immediately transfer to the mixing bowl with the egg mixture. Toss constantly for 30 seconds or so, coating all of the pasta with the sauce as it thickens. Add the asparagus and onions and toss to combine. Gently fold in the flakes of fish.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve with additional Parmigiano-Reggiano, if you like.

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

4 ounces pasta, use a short pasta like rotini or 4 ounces penne
8 ounces asparagus, pencil thin and cut into 1-inch lengths
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 quart water
8 ounces salmon fillets
1/4 teaspoon dill
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon lemon juice, fresh

Steps:

  • Turn on your broiler and set your upper rack to the middle position. Let it preheat 5 minutes.
  • Set 1 qt of water to boil in a medium pot.
  • Take a 12" wide section of heavy duty foil and fold into thirds and then fold over the edges by 1/4"- this is what you will bake the salmon on (who doesn't like easy cleanup?). Spray the foil with a spritz of cooking spray, and season the salmon on both sides. Place on the foil and give the top of the salmon a spritz of cooking spray.
  • Bake under the broiler- this should take about 6-8 minutes. When its done, remove from the oven and set it aside to rest.
  • When your water comes to a boil, salt it and add the pasta. You will add in the asparagus during the last minute of cooking.
  • To make the sauce, whisk together the first 9 ingredients of the sauce in a small saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir occasionally. When it has thickened and no longer has a starchy flavor, take off the heat.
  • When the pasta and asparagus is done cooking, drain and return to the pan you cooked it inches Dice the salmon into bite sized pieces and add to the pasta.
  • Just before adding the sauce to the pasta, stir in the lemon juice and light butter. Dump this into the pan with the pasta, asparagus and salmon, toss gently until the pasta is completely coated with sauce.
  • Serve!
