I arrived home from the Sophie Elgort event around 9:30, half-starving, only to find my husband in the same condition…and almost nothing in our refrigerator. We did, however, have the four ingredients I needed to make this ridiculously simple salmon pasta.
Just rub a large piece of salmon (1 piece is fine for two people) with a little good-quality olive oil (maybe adding a squeeze of lemon), season to taste, and then place on a foil-lined baking sheet in a 350F oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until cooked to your liking. Add a generous serving of farfalle (or whatever you have in your cupboard) to a large pot of salted boiling water, and cook according to package directions. Drain pasta, return to pot, and throw in about a cup of peas and the flaked salmon (just use a fork to gently pull it apart, discarding the skin). Toss it all together with some vodka sauce (I used Newman’s Own because it was getting on towards 10PM – and because I like Newman’s Own – but if you’re so inclined, this is a nice, simple recipe for the homemade stuff).
