Tagliatelle with fried salmon in cream cheese and lime sauce

In this post, I’ll show you a quick and easy recipe for creamy tagliatelle with fried salmon in a cream cheese and lime sauce.

Do you sometimes fancy a quick but tasty pasta that is a little more unusual than with tomato sauce? Then I have the perfect 30-minute recipe for balanced tagliatelle with fried salmon and spinach in a creamy cream cheese sauce with lime. A fancy combination prepared very easily with just a few ingredients.

Even if there is nothing wrong with pasta with tomato sauce, it can sometimes just be a little more varied. With these tagliatelle with salmon I honestly had to improvise a bit as I didn’t have any lemons or tomatoes in the house. So why not just work with lime instead of lemon and conjure up a quick and light sauce made from cream cheese and pasta water instead of tomato sauce? Said and done. The result was these creamy tagliatelle with fried salmon.

If you are also into the combination of pasta and salmon, then you might also like my spaghetti with salmon.
