Creamy Salmon With Gemelli And Veggies Food

ONE PAN BAKED SALMON AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• In a small bowl mix Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Cut zucchini, peppers, and onion into 1/2" cubes. Place all vegetables on the baking sheet.
• Add half the spice mixture, 1/2 tbsp olive oil (reserve remaining oil and spices for the salmon) and mix thoroughly to coat all the vegetables. Evenly spread the veggies on the baking sheet pan and cook the vegetables in the oven for 10 min.
• Remove the pan and make space for the salmon fillets. Rub remaining spice mixture on the salmon fillets and place them in the gap among the vegetables. Drizzle remaining oil on the salmon.
• Return the pan to oven and cook for 5-8 min or until salmon is well done.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices.

CREAMY SALMON WITH GEMELLI AND VEGGIES

Steps:

• Cook and drain pasta as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, spray 12-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add salmon to skillet; sprinkle with salt. Cook uncovered over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until salmon flakes easily with fork. Remove salmon from skillet.
• Add potatoes, beans, pasta sauce and pepper to same skillet. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender. Stir in pasta, salmon and basil. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, just until thoroughly heated.

GEMELLI WITH CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES IN TOMATO-BASIL CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the chicken and brown on all sides. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and set aside. In the same skillet, add the onion, carrot and bell pepper. Cook and stir until soft, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer.
• Pour in the heavy cream. Stir in the tomato, tomato paste and Parmesan. Add the basil and sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil. Season with cayenne, salt and pepper, to taste. Add the chicken and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Once chicken is cooked through, stir in the Gemelli pasta.
• Serve and enjoy!

SALMON WITH CREAM CHEESE, SPINACH & GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Spray a 9x9 baking pan with olive oil. Place salmon fillets in pan. Sprinkle lightly with paprika.
• In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley and a sprinkle of pepper. Spread this over the salmon fillets. (I usually micrwave this for 20 to 30 seconds to make it easier to spread).
• Sprinkle the chopped onion evenly over the cream cheese.
• Layer the baby spinach leaves evenly and neatly over the onions (I make 4 layers of leaves).
• Spray or drizzle the spinach leaves with olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Cover tightly with foil and bake 25-35 minutes depending on the thickness of your salmon. It takes a little longer than usual because of all the toppings.
