Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the broiler to high. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce.
- Pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with salt and Italian Seasoning.
- Drain, then pat roasted peppers dry with paper towels. Roughly chop, then set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl until melted.
- Add salmon, skin-sides down. Sear for 1-2 min, until golden. To a foil-lined baking sheet, transfer salmon, skin-sides down.
- Drizzle remaining melted butter from pan over salmon.
- Broil in the middle of the oven for 4-6 min, until cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, reheat the pan over medium.
- Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then roasted peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.
- Add spinach. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until wilted.
- To the boiling water, add penne. Cook for 1-2 min, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water. Strain penne, then return to the pot, off heat.
- Add garlic spread, then toss to coat. Set aside.
- Thinly slice basil.
- To the pan with veggies, add marinara, pesto, half the basil and reserved pasta water. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly.
- Carefully remove and discard salmon skin, if you like.
- Divide penne between bowls.
- Top with sauce and salmon.
- Sprinkle Parmesan and remaining basil over top.
