How to Make Penne With Vodka Cream And Smoked Salmon
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil (if using) in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the marinara sauce, dill, and vodka. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add the smoked salmon, peas, and heavy cream to the sauce. Stir gently and heat through for about 3-5 minutes, until the salmon is heated and the sauce is creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra fresh dill if desired.
