Pan-seared salmon tossed in a creamy pesto alfredo sauce with penne pasta. My imitation of one of our favorite dishes at our favorite local restaurant.
Servings: 4
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 16 oz penne
- 4 (6 ounce) fillets salmon
- ½ cup prepared pesto
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 ½ cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Steps
- subheading: Cook the penne while doing the below:
- subheading: Sauce:
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Add cream, heat to a simmer and then simmer for 5 minutes, then add garlic and cheese and whisk quickly, heating through. Stir in pesto and parsley.
- subheading: Salmon:
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 3 minutes, then add a little oil.
- Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper and place in skillet, then let sit to cook until you see a crust forming on the sides and the salmon doesn't stick (about 3 minutes).
- Turn salmon over, and cook the other side the same way until browned. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Mix the sauce with the cooked penne, put on plates and top with salmon.
