Yield: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • salt and black pepper, to taste
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅔ cup white wine
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1½ tbsp cornstarch
  • 4 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 10 oz frozen peas
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp drained capers
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
  • 1 lb fettuccine
Instructions
  1. Season the salmon on both sides with salt and black pepper. Dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add the salmon to the pan and cook for 4 minutes on each sides or to desired degree of doneness. Set aside.
  3. Wipe out the pan. Melt the remaining tablespoon of the butter in the pan and then add the garlic, sauteing until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any brown bits. Simmer until the wine is almost evaporated, then stir in the broth and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and let bubble for 1 minute.
  4. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with ¼ cup of the sauce. Pour back into the pan and return to a boil. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Add in the peas and cook until warmed through. Stir in the cream. Remove from the heat and stir in the capers and parmesan cheese. Set aside.
  5. Using a fork, break the salmon up into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to package directions. Drain and return the noodles to the pot. Toss with the cream sauce and the salmon. Serve warm, garnished with grated parmesan cheese.
