I haven't tried this one yet, but it sounded delicious. Fresh grilled salmon would take it to the unbelievably delicious level, I think. I wouldn't leave out the wine. It will add an extra dimension to the dish. I am posting for safe keeping and will rate it as soon as I make it. See my page for Flat Belly Diet Guidelines.
Ingredients:
4 ounces whole wheat penne
1/4 cup olive oil (mufa)
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved (12-15)
5 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 cup white wine
3/4 lb salmon fillet, wild, cut into bite-size pieces, boneless, skinless
4 tablespoons fresh sweet basil leaves, chopped (to taste)
2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained (optional)
Directions:
1. 1. PREPARE pasta per package directions.
2. 2. HEAT oil in large skillet over medium-high heat while pasta cooks. Add tomatoes and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Raise heat to high and add wine, salmon, basil, oregano, garlic and capers and cook until salmon is just opaque, about 4 minutes. Or cook other ingredients and add grilled salmon with pasta in step 3.
3. 3. DRAIN pasta and add to skillet. Toss with tomatoes and salmon to combine. Divide equally among 4 bowls. Sprinkle with additional basil and oregano, if desired.
