Farfalle Pasta With Smoked Salmon And Cream Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Add onion to pot; immediately drain pasta mixture, and return to pot.
• Add cream cheese, dill, capers, and salmon to pasta. Toss, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time to create a thin sauce that coats farfalle (you may not need all the water). Season lightly with salt and pepper. Serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion in butter until tender.
• Stir flour and garlic powder into the butter and onions. Gradually stir in milk. Heat to just below boiling point, and then gradually stir in cheese until the sauce is smooth. Stir in peas and mushrooms., and cook over low heat for 4 minutes.
• Toss in smoked salmon, and cook for 2 more minutes. Serve over pasta.

Steps:

• Heat broiler to low. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Season salmon with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Broil until cooked through, 5 minutes per side. Let cool; cut salmon into bite-size pieces. Cook pasta as directed on package; add peas 3 minutes before end of cooking time; drain. Whisk 1/4 cup milk and flour in a small saucepan until smooth; whisk in remaining 1 1/4 cups milk, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until as thick as heavy cream, 10 minutes. Remove from heat; add Neufchaåtel and 1 tbsp dill; whisk until cheese melts. Toss pasta and peas with sauce and salmon; drizzle with juice. Garnish with zest and remaining 1 tablespoon dill.

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Add onions to pot, then immediately drain remaining water. Return onions and pasta to pot.
• Add cream cheese, dill, capers and salmon to pot. Toss ingredients together, adding a little bit of the reserved water at a time to form a thin sauce that coats the pasta. You may not need all of the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in lots of boiling, salted water until dente. Drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet, saute garlic in butter over medium heat for 2 minutes, careful not to let the garlic brown or burn. Add vodka and cook a further minute or so for alcohol to evaporate. Add half and half and cream cheese and whisk until the cream cheese has melted into the sauce. Add the pepper and simmer for 2 minutes.
• Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and all of the smoked salmon. Keep tossing and cooking the pasta in the sauce for 1-2 minutes so that the pasta absorbs some of the sauce, but is still coated in a 'runny' and creamy sauce.
• Garnish at table with freshly-grated parmegiano-reggiano cheese and more freshly-cracked black pepper, as desired.
