Receta Pasta with Salmon
This was dinner last night, inspired by my favorite dish at the Dubliner. A delicious, if not low-fat, meal. Ed went looking for seconds, but sadly, we'd eaten it all. The Dubliner makes this with cherry tomatoes. I wanted to use a large tomato, so I just diced it coarsely. I used 100 grams of smoked salmon, pulling the thin slices into little pieces; it would be great with grilled salmon too.
Ingredients
- 4 to 5 ounces of pasta, cooked according to package directions
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 shallot, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 - 1 cup cooked salmon, diced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large tomato diced or 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup finely snipped fresh dill
- salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
While the pasta is cooking, saute the shallot and garlic over medium heat until the shallot is translucent, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the drained pasta, salmon, cream, and cheese to the frying pan, heat stirring constantly until the cream has reduced and thickened, and the cheese has melted.
Add the tomato and dill, season with salt and pepper; serve immediately.
