Healthy Salmon - If you’re looking to substitute meat for something healthier like salmon, this pasta is it. I combine nuggets of salmon with fresh spring vegetables that will become part of your weekly rotation.
½ lb salmon, cut into large cubes
1 cup asparagus, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
24 oz jarred marinara sauce
1 cup water
½ lb linguine pasta, uncooked
1 cup diced tomatoes
Fresh basil
Parmesan cheese
In a large pot on medium high heat, drizzle some olive oil and let it get hot. Add salmon chunks and gently cook for 2 minutes. Add asparagus and some salt and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through. Remove from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, using the residual oil from the salmon, add garlic and saute for a minute until fragrant. Then add marinara, and linguine pasta. I like to break the linguine in half so it fits into the pot. Turn the heat down to medium and cook for 12-14 minutes until the pasta is cooked through. Add the salmon and asparagus back in, along with diced tomatoes, basil, and parmesan cheese.
