Doesn’t that look absolutely amazing? It is. Seriously. This recipe, I will even classify as tongeugasmic, Oh yes.. I said it! Tonguegasmic baby.
When I saw a recipe in this Women’s health handout from Walmart, yes, I know they’re the cause of all that is wrong with the world.. I shop there occasionally, deal with it K 🙂 that featured Salmon, Basil and Feta I sort of went, “Eh” But hubby loves Salmon and wants to eat it more so I took their original recipe found here and tweaked and played with ingredients to make it suit us. I was still skeptical but what the heck, I love trying new things.
Here’s my recipe:
First, I bought this Farfalle pasta because I like the 3 colors, plus Farfalle is just fun to say:
Rachel’s Fa-Fa and Feta and Salmon Pasta
* 2 fresh salmon fillets, roughly 12 oz (frozen works too)
*a few dashes salt (to taste)
*10 oz farfalle pasta, or whatever kind floats your boat
*5 cloves garlic, minced
*roughly 15 to 20 grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
*1 C chopped green onions.
*3- 4 Tbsp snipped fresh basil leaves (yes, it must be fresh)
*1 tsp coarse ground black pepper
*1 tsp red pepper flakes
*couple of handfuls of fresh spinach leaves
* a few drizzles olive oil, you choose how much to use
* 1 4 oz. package crumbled feta cheese. ( I use a garlic and herb blend)
How To:
*Cook pasta according to package.
Drain, drizzle with olive oil, cover and set aside. Make sure this stays warm.
*Meanwhile, drizzle olive oil into a medium high heat pan and toss in about 1/2 of the minced garlic cloves.
* Cook for about a minute or until the aroma becomes very strong and the garlic starts to soften.
*Sprinkle the salmon with salt
* Add the salmon to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Turn the fish occasionally while cooking. Stir in the tomatoes, the rest of the garlic, onions, basil and peppers. Heat through, stirring occasionally. Right before you think you’re done, toss in the spinach leaves just and heat them just enough so they start to wilt. In a large bowl toss together the hot pasta, some olive oil and the salmon mixture. Top with the feta cheese.
The Finished Product
I am absolutely delighted with this recipe and I can see this becoming a frequent visitor in our home. The flavors are delightful. Just the right hint of subtle mint from the basil, the peppers add a nice light undertone of spice and the salmon and garlic are a beautiful blend. The grape tomatoes give this dish a surprising burst of roasted sweetness each time you come across one, and the herb Feta.. oh. my. stars. it got all warm and savory and mmmmmmm. I’m drooling just thinking about it. I’m tellin’ y’all, you have to try this. It’s not often that I go into something skeptically and come out a believer.. but y’all…. Nathan ate two huge helpings and I finished off one bowl and then went and nipped a few more bites out of the serving dish. I’m going to have this cold for lunch tomorrow, I’ll let y’all know the outcome.
Oh, we paired it with a Lindeman’s Chardonnay and it was a delectable pairing.
This looks delicious – my family loves pasta! This is your recipe? I am going to have to try it! I love those bowtie pastas.
Thanks – take care- Kellan
It’s my reworking of a recipe that Wal-Mart printed in their Women’s Health Booklet.
Hope y’all enjoy! It is truly fabulous!!!
looks absolutely delicious! I may have to give it a try!! As for shopping at walmart..I’m a regular visitor…there groceries are SO much CHEAPER than most stores around…so yeah if I get grief for it..oh well at least I saved a couple bucks in the process!
Have you tried it with chicken? We don’t do fish. I love Feta. And, Farfalle.
Sounds awesome, honey! Too bad I’m not eating ever again.
OMG that looks delicious! I love love salmon.
One of the more “odd” sandwiches I have tried (that is actually super delicious) is a salmon BLT. It was incredible.
p.s. no shame in the Wally World! My boss told me last week she shops there for all her groceries!
I am SO going to try cooking this! By the way, how do you make that cute signature at the end of your posts? And how do you label all of your photos?
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I immediately put yours in my Google Reader when I saw this fabulous recipe. We love salmon and feta cheese, so this sounds wonderful. I love to take to make a salad with feta cheese, pecans and dried cranberries. The combination is delicious.
This looks great – I am not crazy about fish but my husband loves it – I could make my half with chicken maybe.
Yum Rachel! That looks so good! I love food that’s just as pretty as it is delicious.
That looks like a must-try. Fabulous!
that’s looks really tasty! yum! 🙂
Looks delicious! I received that book too. I am dying to try the Banana Oat Breakfast Cookies
That looks like heaven! Thank you so much for the recipe. We love salmon and pasta so I’m sure we’ll love this one. 🙂
I made Farfalle for the kids yesterday and Davey ate the heck out of it. This recipe is awesome!!
Glad to see that you recommended a great Aussie chardonnay!!
Sounds good to me!
This will totally work for my upcoming dinner party.
Oh my word. This looks scrumptious!!
I got that book from Walmart, too — your recipe tweaks sound great. I’m going to put it on my menu for this week!
That looks AMAZING.. i may change the fish to chicken and I think my hubby would be sold on it!! YUM
“Farfalle, farfalle. Vendetta, vendetta!” (Ever see that episode of the Simpsons, with Sideshow Bob’s family in Italy? No? Ok…well. I’ll be going now…)
