Red Salmon – Skinless & Boneless 170G
Caught in the cold clear waters off Alaska and Canada, our wild red salmon is packed with both flavour and natural omega-3. Skinless and boneless for your convenience, it's also deliciously versatile, perfect for adding protein into a pasta bake, or even homemade sushi.
Step 1
To prepare our Salmon Penne Recipe cook the pasta in plenty of lightly salted boiling water for about 10 minutes, or according to pack instructions.
Step 2
Cook the green beans in lightly salted boiling water for 3 or 4 minutes, and drain them thoroughly.
Drain the cooked pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquid, then return both to the saucepan. Add the green beans, lemon zest and juice, thyme leaves and olive oil.
Step 3
Break the John West Salmon into small chunks and add them to the pan. Stir everything together gently over a medium heat for 1 or 2 minutes. Season to taste, then serve, garnished with lemon wedges and thyme sprigs.
