Salmon Alfredo
This is a recipe that I first shared with you almost 10 years ago and thought it was time to revamp it a bit and remind you guys about it, because it’s a true gem! If you love a good Alfredo pasta, then you’ll love this version with smoked salmon. If you ask yourself why salmon though, there really is an easy answer to this. Smoked salmon flavors this sauce so nicely, it provides it with extra saltiness and a distinctive smoky flavor. It really is a party in your mouth. It’s so good, you’ll have a hard time stopping yourself from eating this. Besides the great flavor this salmon Alfredo has, I love this pasta because it’s super quick to make. About 12 minutes to cook the pasta, then less than 5 minutes to make the sauce and toss everything together, making this the perfect dinner for any night of the week.
What You Need To Make Salmon Alfredo
Butter – Unsalted as to control the sodium content of our dish. Garlic – Just a couple cloves of garlic to flavor our sauce. Heavy Cream – We’re using heavy cream to form a beautiful creamy sauce. Parmesan Cheese – Lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese is a must in an Alfredo sauce. Smoked Salmon – I used hot smoked salmon that I usually get at Costco. It comes in thinly sliced fillets in vacuum sealed packets. It’s usually in a big box with a few packets inside. It’s really good and great in so many dishes, or on just some salmon cream cheese bagels. Herbs – I love the addition of some fresh thyme in this dish. Seasoning – A bit of salt and pepper to taste. Pasta – You can use any pasta such as penne, elbow, shells or even spaghetti or fettuccine.

Leftovers?
As mentioned this Alfredo pasta is best served immediately. However, if you have leftovers, store this in an airtight container and refrigerate for 3 to 5 days. Just be sure it’s properly cooled before storing. Unfortunately this dish doesn’t freeze well so I recommend either making it day of or a few days before and storing in the fridge.
