Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions, typically 8-10 minutes until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain and drizzle with olive oil.
- Season salmon with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook salmon for 4-5 minutes per side until flaky. Remove and let cool, then flake into pieces.
- In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
- Pour in heavy cream, stir in Parmesan cheese, and add lemon zest, juice, and red pepper flakes. Cook until creamy.
- Fold in cooked pasta and flaked salmon, adding reserved pasta water if needed to adjust thickness.
- Serve immediately, garnished with parsley and lemon slices.
