Best Lemony Salmon Fettuccine Recipes

BAKED LEMON-BUTTER SALMON WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Lightly salt and pepper salmon fillet on both sides, and place in a 2-quart baking dish. Squeeze 1 lemon half over the salmon, then sprinkle with minced garlic and 1/2 of the butter pieces.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• When salmon is cooked, break apart into large chunks (it will break apart a little further when you toss it with the pasta.)
• Add cooked pasta to the baking dish with the salmon. Drizzle pasta and salmon with olive oil, and add remaining butter pieces. Zest the remaining lemon half and add to the pasta, then squeeze juice from the zested lemon into the pasta as well. Add parsley, salt, and pepper.
• Toss everything gently until pasta is well coated in the pan juices and everything you have added in, and salmon is evenly distributed amongst the pasta. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add a touch more butter or oil if needed, if your pasta is too dry.

LEMONY SALMON FETTUCCINE

Steps:

• Prepare the fettuccine using the package directions, omitting the salt and oil. Stir in the asparagus for the last 4 minutes of the cooking time. Drain well in a colander.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, cream cheese, and sour cream. Cook over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth, whisking frequently.
• Stir in the salmon, 1/4 cup Parmesan, lemon juice, and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until hot, stirring occasionally.
• In a large bowl, stir together the pasta and salmon mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan, then with the parsley.
• Cook's Tip
• For a change of pace, replace the asparagus with other fresh or frozen vegetables, adding them during the last 3 to 5 minutes of boiling time for the pasta. If you have some leftover vegetables that would go well with the salmon and pasta combo, you could heat them to add instead.
