Pasta with salmon, tomatoes and dill

Yesterday I went to the fishmonger as I had an idea in mind about a recipe I wanted to make: fresh salmon with whole rice gluten free penne, cherry tomatoes, some red onions and a sprinkle of dill!

In the South of Italy where I come from, we are used to marry fish with pasta and in this way we create dishes that are healthy, tasty and so perfectly balanced: they have proteins, carbo and good fats. All that we need to nourish ourselves in the best possible way. Besides it is super easy to make!

STEP 1

Cut the onion in thin slices, the salmon in small pieces and the cherry tomatoes in two halves. Take a large pan, add the extra virgin olive oil and the onion. Fry it gently over low heat until it turns blond. Add the cherry tomatoes, a pinch of salt and turn the heat on medium/high. After a couple of minutes and when the pan gets hot, add the salmon, a pinch of salt on the salmon and stir gently. It will cook quite quickly. Turn the heat off and put the pan aside.

STEP 2

Take a large pot. Add water and put it over medium heat. When the water is about to boil add the pasta and then a pinch of salt. When the pasta is “al dente”, drain all the water.

STEP 3

Add the pasta in the pan and put the pan back over medium/high heat. Stir all the ingredients for a couple of minutes so that they will mix together beautifully. Turn off the heat and serve with a sprinkle of fresh dill.

Buon Appetito !
