Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

Light Alfredo sauce (Classico makes one)
2 cloves of garlic put through garlic press or minced really fine.
2 and 1/4 cups of dry penne rigate noodles
2 pieces (4oz-6oz each) of salmon
1/3 lb fresh spinach sauted with a garlic clove sliced or 1/2 a can of spinach
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive oil
Sea Salt
Freshed cracked pepper
1/2 a lemon
Fresh Thyme
Parmesan

Steps:

Salmon: Heat broiler for salmon. Place salmon on a baking sheet with your choice of grilling spray or Extra virgin olive oil to ensure salmon doesn't stick. Place on the baking sheet and sprinkle tops with salt, pepper, thyme and lemon juice squeezed from the lemon. Broil for 5-6 minutes until salmon is light pink on the outside. Penne Rigate: In a pot bring to a boil water, salt (to taste), and extra virgin olive oil. Once at a boil add penne rigate and cook until just done (al dente, it should still have a bite to it and not be mushy or over cooked.)Strain and place to the side. Alfredo Sauce: In a frying pan place 1 cup of alfredo sauce of choice, 2 cloves of minced garlic and spinach on medium-low heat. Heat until warm and ready to serve. Turn heat off and add the penne rigate to the sauce and stir until everything is coated, place in a bowl or plate of your choice and then add the piece of salmon atop the penne rigate, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve and enjoy.
