How to Make Pasta Al Salmone

  1. Cut 1 pound salmon fillet into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Gently simmer salmon cubes in a saucepan with 1/2 cup of water over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked through. Flake with a fork and set aside.
  3. Bring 4 quarts of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add 1 pound pasta (penne, linguine, or your favorite shape) and cook according to package directions until al dente.
  4. While pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook until lightly golden (about 1 minute).
  5. Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and 1/2 cup vodka to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until mushrooms soften slightly.
  6. Stir in 1 (24-ounce) jar tomato sauce, 1/2 cup heavy cream, flaked salmon, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper to taste.
  7. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
  9. Serve immediately and garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
