  • 2 salmon fillets skinned and chopped on a bite-size pieces
  • 2 garlic cloves finely minced
  • ½ bunch asparagus tough ends removed and asparagus halved
  • 1 ½ cup milk
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 1 ½ tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt divided
  • ½ teaspoon pepper divided
  • 3 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped (optional)

Instructions

  4. Add milk, reduce the heat to low-medium and whisk the sauce until no lumps remain. Season the sauce with the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper and add Parmesan cheese.
  5. Remove saucepan from the heat and combine sauce with cooked pasta, asparagus and salmon. Optional - Add pasta cooking water to the pasta to thin out the sauce even more.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately!
