How to Make Healthy & Creamy Tuscan Salmon Pasta
- Preheat your nonstick pan over medium heat.
- Cut the salmon fillets into four equal portions and season them with salt and pepper.
- Sauté the salmon skin-side down in olive oil for about 5 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Remove the salmon from the pan and keep it warm by covering it with foil.
- Lower the heat and add butter to the same pan, followed by minced garlic cloves. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Whisk together a slurry with 2% milk and cornstarch, then incorporate it into the pan. Stir until the sauce thickens, which should take 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper, until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Add fresh spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and sun-dried tomatoes to the pan. Cook until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften, about 2-3 minutes.
- Return the salmon to the pan and heat it through for 1 minute, then serve everything over whole wheat linguini.
