Creamy Salmon Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato Garlic Sauce

Creamy Salmon Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato Garlic Sauce

Let us introduce you to the best salmon pasta recipe around. This Creamy Salmon Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato Garlic Sauce is a simple yet impressive meal for a quick weeknight dinner at home. Wild Alaskan Salmon, sun dried tomatoes, garlic, and lemon give this pasta incredible flavor.

We made this salmon pasta with tagliatelle but it is also delicious with spaghetti if you do not have tagliatelle on hand. The sauce is made with sautéed garlic, onion, sun dried tomatoes, spinach, and cheese to create a creamy and flavorful combination. With pan-seared king salmon, this is a melt-in-your-mouth recipe.

This dish is as quick and easy of a meal to make as it is to enjoy! It is ready in 30 minutes or less and only requires one pan. We recommend serving this with steamed broccoli or a simple arugula salad.

Save this recipe for an easy weeknight dinner and let us know when you try it!

Creamy Salmon Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato Garlic Sauce

Ingredients

  • (2) 6 oz portions Wild Alaskan King Salmon

  • 1 package Tagliatelle pasta

  • Salt and pepper

  • olive oil

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 6 cloves garlic, finely diced

  • 2/3 cup yellow onion, diced

  • 1/4 cup sun dried tomato, drained and chopped

  • 1 1/2 cups half and half

  • 3 cups baby spinach

  • 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Cook pasta according to package, drain and set aside.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, and sear in the hot pan, flesh-side down first, for 4-5 minutes on each side, until opaque in the middle. Once cooked, remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. Melt the butter in the remaining juices leftover in the pan. Add in the garlic and onion and cook for 2-3 min. Add the sun dried tomatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes.

  4. Reduce heat to low, add the half and half and bring to a gentle simmer, while stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. Add in the spinach and parmesan cheese. Allow sauce to simmer for another minute until cheese melts and spinach wilts.

  6. Add cooked pasta back to skillet and gently mix with sauce.

  7. Serve pasta and top with salmon and chopped parsley.

  8. Enjoy!
