This simple pasta dish uses grilled salmon and is lightly dressed in a cream cheese sauce. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package linguine |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
1/4 cup diced onion |
1/2 cup chopped yellow bell pepper |
1 tablespoon reduced-fat cream cheese |
6 ounces cooked salmon, flaked into bite-sized pieces |
6 tablespoons skim milk |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill, or to taste |
1/2 lemon, sliced |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain and transfer linguine to a serving bowl.
2. Heat butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat until bubbling; cook and stir onion and yellow bell pepper in the bubbling butter mixture until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir cream cheese into onion mixture until melted. Add salmon and milk; simmer until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
3. Pour salmon sauce over linguine and toss to coat; garnish with dill and lemon slices.
