Easy Salmon Florentine Recipe With Alfredo Sauce Is Sensational Pasta Seafood Dinner

How do I love thee, salmon? Let me count the ways. Here’s one more fantastic salmon recipe to add to your seafood repertoire.

I found a couple of similar recipes online, one that had fresh mushrooms and a make-it-yourself sauce, and the other that uses jar sauce but no mushrooms. This easy dinner recipe is what I came up with!

Opening up your favorite jar of Alfredo sauce makes this easy, and adding the mushrooms, well, we like mushrooms almost as much as we do salmon!

Cuisine: Italian / American
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 2 8-ounce wild-caught salmon fillets (skinless if you can get them)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, finely minced
  • 1 bag (5 ounces) fresh spinach
  • 3 tablespoons sundried tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 jar (15 ounces) alfredo sauce
  • 8 ounces spaghetti noodles, cooked (I used whole-wheat spaghetti)
  • salt and pepper, to taste (I don’t bother)

Here’s how to make it:

  1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and keep warm.
  2. Dry the salmon with paper towels. Heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat until hot. Add salmon, skin-side down, and cook for about 4 minutes. (Be careful of splattering oil!)
  3. Turn salmon over and remove skin. Cook for an additional 4 minutes. Remove salmon from pan. 
  4. Add the mushrooms and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly browned.  Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  5. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Add the tomatoes and Alfredo sauce. Heat through. 
  6. Serve on individual plates with spaghetti, the sauce and topped with the salmon. Drizzle a little sauce on top.
