Salmon Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes is the title of the cdkitchen recipe we
started with but we changed it enough to make the title of different.
Salmon
With Sun Dried Tomato Pasta – Adapted from cdkitchen.com
Ingredients:
4
cloves garlic
2
shallots
3
tablespoons oil
1/4
cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup
chicken broth
2 salmon filets
8
ounces angel hair pasta (we used leftovers)
2
tablespoons capers, rinsed
Fresh Parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Chop
garlic and shallots and saute in oil, and set aside.
2. Bring
broth to boil; add sun-dried tomatoes; let sit for 15
minutes.
3. Add garlic mixture and capers. Set aside and keep warm.
4. In the meantime, cook
pasta according to package directions, drain and toss with the sauce
5. Top pasta with salmon and grate Parmesan cheese over top. Serve immediately.
Notes:
The original recipe calls for 8 oz of pasta but we used some leftover
orzo. It calls for 6 oz of cooked salmon
mixed into the pasta but we used fresh salmon filets cooked under the broiler and
added atop the pasta – it was too rainy to grill out. The recipe says it’s for four servings but we
sauceaholics used most of the sauce for two servings.
It's a pretty dish and I enjoyed it but would not put it on my OMG list. If I were to make it again, I would thicken the sauce with some corn starch.

ReplyDeleteAmo este pescado salmòn se ve magnìfica y absolutamente deliciosa,hugs,hugs.
ReplyDeleteWe second what Rosita said.
ReplyDeleteLarry, Looks good to me! I might try asiago cheese instead of the parmesan although we like both of them. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteThere really isn't that much sauce there for as much pasta as they recommend, so it's not surprising that you used it all. I too would thicken it with cornstarch, so it would cling to the pasta better. But it does look like a nice change of pace.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great, love that salmon! Orzo also!
ReplyDeleteI've been sitting here reading over many of your posts and vicariously enjoying your adventures south. And am still chuckling over Elmo. lol!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks delicious, Larry! Personally, my husband won't eat salmon if it doesn't have the herbed garlic butter sauce on it that I've been making for years - also great over pasta.
ReplyDeleteBTW, if you've tried to come to my blog recently, it's been locked by Blogger. Someone has been trying to embed malicious codes in blogs and mine was one of a few dozen hacked in the past couple of months. Hopefully, Blogger will clear my site soon and my friends will be able to join me once again!
I'm a sauceaholic too!
ReplyDeleteI suppose you're using "my" salmon? ;) This looks really good Larry. I'd make this using the Angel Hair. I really need to start Salmon Saturday again, thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I hope you saved some for me.
ReplyDeleteIt looks delicious to me, Larry. Grilled salmon is one of our favorite meals.
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious Larry! I hope you guys are warm!
ReplyDeleteHow funny... I cooked up some salmon with orzo last night. Yours looks and sounds really delicious.
ReplyDeleteLarry, what a mouth watering dish!
ReplyDeleteI know you like a good laugh! Go to YouTube and search for "what old people do for fun steering wheel " - you will laugh so hard!
I love your blog for your posts, but I also like to catch the other bloggers that interact. I miss the list you used to have on the right of your page. I would check most of them out and enjoy so many of them. Would you be so kind to repost those? If you do, then I will save them this time to my favorites bar. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteIt is a very pretty dish and we are in love with orzo.
