With the spinach fettuccine taking only 3 minutes to cook al dente and the scallions sautéed with salmon and light cream clocking in at 8 minutes, this recipe is the ultimate weeknight rushed dinnertime dish!
After my mom came in to try to sneak a bite of smoked salmon, she left the kitchen to quickly check her email. When she returned, I was already plating my delicious green pasta. The ingredients work so well together: the scallions and smoked salmon combined with fresh dill … excuse me while I serve myself another helping!
