Creamy Salmon and Asparagus Pasta

Updated at: Thu, 21 Nov 2024 14:05:59 GMT

Step 1

First, cook your pasta according to the packet instructions. Place in boiling water until al dente (about 5 minutes only if using chickpea pasta).

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large skillet or oven, cook your salmon. In the oven, place salmon skin-side down and bake it at 450°F for 13-15 minutes.

Step 3

If you’re using frozen patties as I did, cook the stovetop on medium low heat for 5 minutes on each side. Set aside.

Step 4

Now, using kitchen scissors or a knife, trim the tough parts of the asparagus ends. I cut about 1.5" of the ends. Then, cut each into smaller pieces.

Step 5

After that, in a large non-stick skillet, add olive oil and cook the cut asparagus for about 5 minutes or until tender.

Step 6

Then, add in the minced garlic and cook for a few minutes. Add in Cajun seasoning, heavy cream, grated parmesan, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower to medium heat. Drain the pasta and then gently toss it into the creamy sauce. Cook for a few 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Finally, place an even layer of some creamy pasta on a large plate. Break up the cooked salmon then place the pieces on top.

Step 8

Garnish your plate with minced parsley. Serve and enjoy.
