Recipes:
Blackened Salmon Alfredo Pasta
Ingredients:
For the Salmon:
2 salmon fillets
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
For the Pasta:
250g fettuccine
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh rosemary or parsley for garnish
Instructions:
Cook the Fettuccine
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season and Cook the Salmon
Combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub this spice mix generously onto both sides of the salmon fillets.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, until the outside is crisp and the inside is tender. Remove and set aside.
Prepare the Alfredo Sauce
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the Alfredo sauce. Let it warm through for 2 minutes.
Assemble and Serve
Plate the fettuccine Alfredo and place a piece of blackened salmon on top. Garnish with fresh rosemary or parsley for a touch of elegance.
This rich and flavorful Blackened Salmon Alfredo Pasta is a restaurant-worthy dish you can easily make at home. Enjoy every creamy, savory bite!
