I first tasted this delicious recipe while visiting a northern California coast micro brewery. This is my version. Serve over linguine and garnish with parsley and additional Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 2 cups coarsely chopped onions

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

  • 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered

  • 1 cup white wine

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest

  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

  • ¾ pound smoked salmon, cut into small pieces

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Heat butter and olive oil together in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and salt until translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low; add artichoke hearts, wine, chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon zest and red pepper flakes; simmer until liquid is reduced and thickened into a sauce, about 10 minutes.

  2. Mix salmon, cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper into sauce; simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Cook's Note:

Pre-smoked salmon can be used or fresh wild caught salmon can be smoked on the grill and used (my favorite).
