The presented recipes will brighten up your dinner and leave you satisfied for a long time. After all, everyone knows that nothing makes us as happy as truly delicious food. And especially salmon in cream.
In our family there is no debate about how to cook pasta with salmon in a creamy sauce. This is my husband's signature recipe, and it goes with any smoked or salted salmon, and even trout and tuna. It is prepared in an elementary way (so that even a man who knows how to cook a total of less than a dozen dishes can easily cope with this task). But in terms of taste, this is perhaps the brightest fish cream sauce for pasta that I know.
A quick note on ingredients. If you don't like the thickness of the sauce that you see in my photo, use double the amount of cream. We do it according to our mood - this way, then that. All operations will remain exactly the same, it will just take longer to evaporate the sauce. For two servings, pasta with salmon in cream sauce will take about 15 minutes to cook, but as the number of eaters and sauce increases, so will the cooking time.
The order in which you prepare this dish depends on how many minutes the package directions tell you to cook the pasta. If more than 15 minutes, then start cooking there. If less, start with the sauce and then add the pasta. In any case, the pasta should be boiled to your desired degree of doneness.
Finely chop the onion.
Fry the onion in butter until translucent. While the onion is frying, chop the garlic.
Add the garlic to the onion and fry until the garlic smells from raw to fried (but not burnt). This normally takes 1-2 minutes.
While the onions and garlic are frying, finely chop the salted or smoked salmon.
Throw the fish into the onion and garlic, pour in the cream, mix everything, and simmer the cream over very high heat until the sauce reaches a creamy consistency.
While the sauce is evaporating, chop the parsley.
Drain the pasta completely.
Stir parsley into sauce just before serving.
Serve pasta with salmon in a creamy sauce, preferably with white wine.
Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook, turning every couple of minutes, until the fish is cooked through. Depending on the thickness, this will take about 8-10 minutes. Remove salmon from pan and keep warm.
In the same pan, add finely chopped garlic and shallots. Cook over low heat until the onions are translucent, but do not brown them. Add fresh thyme and heat for a couple of minutes. Add wine and increase heat to medium. Cook until it is reduced by half.
At the same time, let the pasta cook according to the instructions on the package. For my taste, Fettuccine is most suitable here, but you can take another type. Add milk, cream, grated Parmesan to the pan and season with salt and pepper to taste. Increase heat and cook, whisking occasionally, until cheese is melted.
Add the remaining dill and green peas. Cook for a couple more minutes and then turn off the heat. Frozen peas must first be thawed and excess water drained. Drain the water from the finished pasta, reserving half a cup. If the sauce seems too thick, dilute it with this water.
Mix the sauce with the pasta and serve with the salmon pieces on top. The paste turns out very tender and creamy. Each serving contains approximately 4-5 pieces of fish. Bon appetit! The recipe is adapted from the English-language blog Tatyana's everyday food. Many thanks to the author.
Fettuccine (pasta) with salmon is a common dish in both Italy and Russia. They love it for its exquisite, sophisticated taste and ease of preparation. The main thing is to have good pasta made from durum and red fish fillets. Those who like fatter fish can be advised to buy salmon or trout; if they are leaner, take chum salmon, pink salmon, sockeye salmon or coho salmon.
Today we will prepare a popular and delicate dish called “Fettuccine pasta” with salmon in a creamy sauce. It is prepared quite quickly and from simple ingredients, the maximum cooking time is 20 minutes. We will use long flat noodles - “Fettuccine”, which is sold in any hypermarket.
It is with these noodles that salmon pasta turns out tender, juicy and aromatic. It cooks quickly and goes well with creamy sauce. It also contains a minimal amount of calories. If you wish, you can use regular spaghetti or other pasta to your taste instead of noodles; in any variation, the dish turns out delicious and satisfying.
Fettuccine pasta with salmon in cream sauce
— Fettuccine noodles — 200 grams;
- heavy cream (about 300 grams);
- salmon, frozen, fresh or lightly salted - 300 grams;
- a head of onion;
- garlic (two cloves);
Pour cold water into a large saucepan (per 100 grams of pasta - a liter), add salt to taste and place on medium heat. Add the pasta to very boiling water, stir for two minutes and leave to cook until al dente (about 10 minutes - see instructions on the package).
While our pasta is boiling, let's start with the fish. If you have it frozen, then you need to defrost it in advance. It is better to take lightly salted or fresh salmon, which will need to be cut into small slices.
Add butter to a frying pan, add chopped onions and fry until golden brown. Pour the cream over the onion and mix well. Next, add fish, pepper, salt, garlic and oregano to this creamy onion mixture and simmer over low heat for no more than five minutes.
Place the finished noodles in a deep plate, place fish in sauce on top of it, and decorate the whole thing with sprigs of herbs - cilantro and basil. Pasta in cream sauce is completely ready to eat. It's better to eat it hot. Bon appetit!
Pasta can be cooked with tomato and sour cream sauces, and you can also add grated cheese. To thicken the sauce, add a tablespoon of flour (like bechamel).
To prevent pasta from overcooking, you need to cook it in plenty of water. To make pasta with salmon more piquant and with a bright taste, be sure to use various dry seasonings - oregano, basil, red pepper, etc. And don’t forget about fresh herbs, they also give the dish an original taste and make it healthier.
If you cook pasta only from high-quality pasta (hard varieties), you will never gain weight. A striking example of this is the slender Italians who eat it every day. Pair pasta with fresh vegetables and low-fat gravies. Instead of meat, take mushrooms or poultry.

How to cook pasta with salmon at home, step-by-step recipe with photos:
Step 1. Peel the bellies of salmon (which can be found in fish stores at a price 3-4 times cheaper than regular salmon) and cut into small cubes.
While we are preparing our salmon, we put in water for the pasta, which we will boil for 5-7 minutes until al dente, that is, the finished pasta should remain a little hard.
Step 2. In a frying pan greased with olive (or butter) oil, fry the salmon until it turns pink. This takes approximately 7 minutes.
During frying, the salmon does not brown like meat, but acquires a delicate pink hue, which indicates the degree of its preparation.
Step 3. Add herbs, salt, pepper and finely chopped garlic to the fried salmon if desired. Fry it all for another 5 minutes.
H Garlic will highlight the delicate taste of salmon and give it a touch of completeness.
Step 4. Without stopping frying the salmon, pour the cream from the pan in a thin stream and stir it.
Step 5. At this time, the pasta should have already been cooked, so put it on a plate greased with a clove of garlic (for flavor) and place the salmon in cream sauce on top.
