Pan-Seared Salmon with Creamy Garlic Pasta
Pan-seared salmon fillet served over al dente pasta tossed in a velvety garlic yogurt sauce with fresh spinach and a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
120 g Salmon fillet
40 g Whole wheat pasta
60 g Non-fat Greek yogurt
10 g Grated parmesan cheese
5 ml Olive oil
2 cloves Garlic
30 g Baby spinach
15 ml Lemon juice
1 g Sea salt
1 g Black pepper
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of water and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente; reserve 30ml of pasta water before draining.
Season the salmon fillet evenly with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 4 to 5 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the center is cooked through.
Remove the salmon from the pan and set aside; reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic to the same pan, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan cheese, and lemon juice until smooth.
Add the cooked pasta, fresh baby spinach, and yogurt mixture to the skillet, tossing gently with the reserved pasta water until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is creamy.
Transfer the creamy pasta to a plate and top with the pan-seared salmon fillet to serve.
