Ingredients
- Salmon fillet with skin 600 g
- Salt 1 g
- Penne Rigate 500 g
- Onions, yellow 1 pc.
- Lemons 1 pc.
- Oil 1 tbsp
- Whipping cream 150 g
- Dill, fresh 20 g
- Pepper, black ground pinch
Instructions
- 1. Rinse the salmon fillet under cold water. Pat it dry with a kitchen towel. Set the fish aside for a short time to reach room temperature. Bring about 4 liters of water with salt to a boil in a large pot.
- 2. Add the Penne Rigate pasta to the boiling salted water. Cook the pasta on medium heat for about 10 minutes until al dente (firm to the bite).
- 3. Halve the onion and peel it. Dice the onion into fine cubes. Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze the juice from the lemon.
- 4. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion cubes to the pan. Sweat the onions for about 3 minutes until they become translucent (glassy).
- 5. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the cream to the pan. Bring the sauce to a boil. Season the sauce lightly with salt and pepper.
- 6. Let the sauce simmer on medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes until it becomes creamy (thickened).
- 7. Remove the skin from the salmon fillet using a sharp knife. Cut the salmon into cubes of about 2 cm in size.
- 8. Wash the dill and shake it dry. Set aside some nice dill tips for decoration. Remove the coarse stems from the rest of the dill. Finely chop the remaining dill.
- 9. Add the salmon cubes to the sauce. Reduce the heat. Cook the salmon with the lid closed on low heat for about 3 to 4 minutes until done.
- 10. Drain the Penne Rigate pasta in a colander. Let them drain for a short time. Add the drained pasta to the pot.
- 11. Mix the pasta with the salmon sauce and the chopped dill. Season the pasta with some of the remaining lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
- 12. Plate the quick salmon pasta with cream sauce and dill. Garnish the portions with the reserved dill tips. Serve the dish.
