This pasta dish has the most amazing creamy garlic sauce topped with salmon, spinach and cherry tomatoes.
Ingredients
4 pieces salmon fillet
1 pack fresh fettuccini pasta
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 to 5 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese

Ground black pepper, to taste
1 vine cherry tomatoes or 1/3 cup cherry tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach

3. In the same skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the vine cherry tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes begins to burst. Stir in the heavy cream and parmesan. Mix thoroughly and bring mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and let is simmer. Make sure not to reduce the sauce too much.Then add the baby spinach and cook until it begins to wilt, about 1 minute.
4. Return the salmon into the skillet and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Serve the salmon, cherry tomatoes, spinach and pour the creamy sauce over the fettuccini.
Bon appétit!
