Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve a cup of pasta water and drain the rest. Set aside.
- Pat salmon dry with paper towels and season with salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add salmon and cook about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add all-purpose flour. Stir continuously for about 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
- Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Pour in wine or broth, scraping up brown bits. Let bubble and reduce for 20 seconds.
- Stir in heavy cream and lemon juice, whisking until smooth. Simmer gently for about 2-3 minutes until thickened slightly.
- Gently fold in cooked salmon, breaking it into pieces. Simmer further for 3-5 minutes.
- Add drained pasta to the skillet and toss until thoroughly coated. Use reserved pasta water to adjust consistency if needed.
- Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving. Enjoy immediately.
