Seared Salmon with Mushroom Spinach Pasta
Pan-seared salmon served over whole wheat pasta with earthy mushrooms and wilted spinach, finished with a squeeze of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 ounces Salmon Fillet
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup White Mushrooms, sliced
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente.
Season the salmon fillet with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the fish is cooked through.
Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they release their moisture and turn golden brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and toss with the mushrooms until just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving two tablespoons of pasta water, and add the pasta to the skillet.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and reserved pasta water to create a light, creamy sauce.
Place the seared salmon on top of the pasta and serve immediately.
