Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

350 g salmon (About 2 good sized boneless & skinless fillets)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
200 g linguine (I use whole wheat)
2 cups broccoli, chopped
1/2 cup reduced-fat ricotta cheese
1/4 cup reduced-fat parmesan cheese
1/3 cup skim milk
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Brush salmon fillets evenly with lemon juice, and bake for 10-20 mins (depending on thickness of fillets) at 400 F, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  • Let cool slightly, and crumble fish into bite sized pieces.
  • Meanwhile, put ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, milk, garlic and pepper into a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Then pour into a saucepan over low heat until warmed (do not let boil.) If sauce seems too thick, add small amounts of milk until it reaches desired consistency.
  • Steam broccoli chopped into small pieces until just tender, and stir into cheese sauce.
  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water until el dente.
  • Toss pasta and cheese/broccoli mixture until well mixed.
  • Gently stir in salmon pieces, or if desired, sprinkle on top of individual plates before serving.
  • Serve Immediately.
