Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Farfalle pasta
- 200 grams Smoked salmon
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 medium Shallot
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 50 ml White wine
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the farfalle pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water.
2. Finely dice the shallot and garlic cloves. Slice the smoked salmon into small bite-sized pieces.
3. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the diced shallot and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine. Allow it to simmer for 2 minutes, reducing slightly.
5. Stir in the heavy cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Lower the heat and let the mixture gently simmer for 5 minutes, thickening slightly.
6. Add the smoked salmon to the skillet, stirring gently to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to warm the salmon through.
7. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add 2-3 tablespoons of the reserved pasta water to loosen it.
8. Toss the cooked farfalle pasta in the sauce until well coated. Add more pasta water if needed to achieve the desired consistency.
9. Garnish the pasta with freshly chopped dill and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy this creamy, smoky delight!
