Ingredients
Instructions
-
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
-
In a large skillet, heat one tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet, flesh side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
-
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook until they begin to soften, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Deglaze the pan with the white wine (if using) and let it reduce slightly, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
-
Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, lemon juice, and dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until slightly thickened.
-
Gently flake the cooked salmon into large chunks and return it to the skillet, along with any juices accumulated on the plate. Stir to combine and let the salmon heat through.
-
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is coated evenly with the sauce.
-
Serve the Salmon and Pasta Without Cream hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
