If your family is anything like my family, they tell you they want pasta for dinner every single night. I’m all for it! At least I used to be. I seriously could eat pasta every single night. But when you reach a certain age, your body doesn’t handle over-consumption of pasta very well. So these days, pasta is more of a treat for us to make for dinner!
Fusilli is the pasta of choice for this recipe. It’s a twisted noodle, and it handles the sauce well. If you can’t find fusilli, penne pasta is a good substitution. We love our salmon. We eat salmon an awful lot, and it happens to be good when added to pasta too. You’ll need 8 ounces (1/2 pound) of salmon for this recipe. Feel free to add more if you want it to be heavy on the salmon! Mushrooms and shallots are sauteed with the salmon to add some good flavor. And the sauce is made up of chicken broth, wine, lemon juice, sour cream, capers and tarragon. You’ll combine the cooked pasta with the sauce just before serving.
This Salmon Fusilli recipe serves just TWO, so you can either enjoy it with your favorite person, or put half of it in the refrigerator to be enjoyed later!
