Here is a recipe that's both easy and tasty. I love salmon and enjoy a good beef stroganoff. So what could be better than combining two great things?! (This does not always work - see here ) But seriously, if you're looking for a meal that's quick and easy, but tastes like you spent a lot of time on it, this recipe is for you!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 lb fresh salmon, cubed

• 8 oz sliced mushrooms (you can add more if you want to)

• 3 tbsp salted butter

• 2 cloves garlic, chopped

• 16 oz heavy whipping cream

• 1/2 cup fresh parmesan cheese

• 2 tbsp chives, chopped

• 1 tsp basil

• 1 tsp oregano

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp pepper

• 1 box of farfalle noodles

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a large pot, begin boiling water for noodles (follow instructions on the box for al dente noodles).

• Warm a large frying pan on medium/high heat, melt 3 tbsp of butter and cook the garlic.

• Once the butter begins to melt, add the mushrooms - cook the mushrooms until they absorb the butter and become soft and spongy.

• Add in heavy whipping cream and increase the heat to high.

• Once the cream begins to boil, reduce the heat to medium, add parmesan cheese and other seasonings, and stir.

• Once all of the ingredients are combined, add the salmon and cook covered for 3-5 minutes.

• Salmon will appear a pinkish white when finished. Remove a piece of the salmon and check to make sure it is fully cooked.

• Combine salmon mixture with noodles in a large bowl and top with chives.

• Serve and enjoy!
