A quick pasta that you can whip up during the week!
Ingredients
- 2 pieces salmon, skin on
- 200g dried fettuccine
- 1 lemon
- 1 zucchini, sliced 0.5cm thick
- 50g baby spinach
- olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Fill a large pot or saucepan with water, season it well and place on a high temp to boil.
- Heat a pan over medium heat with olive oil. Season the salmon with salt and place skin down into the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked to your liking.
- While the fish is cooking, cook the fettuccine according to package instructions.
- Once the salmon is cooked, remove from the pan and set aside. Add the sliced zucchini to the same pan the fish was cooking in and saute for 3-4 minutes or until you have good colour.
- Season the zucchinis with salt, black pepper and the zest of the lemon.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta, and the baby spinach to the pan with the zucchinis and toss.
- Finish with a last drizzle of olive oil and the juice of the lemon.
