Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, reserving some pasta water.
- Prepare the Salmon: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Season salmon with salt and pepper, skin-side down, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until crispy, then flip and cook until opaque. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed, then sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Make the Creamy Sauce: Slowly pour cream into the skillet while stirring. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, then add lemon juice and dill.
- Combine Ingredients: Add cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat with sauce. Flake salmon on top and mix gently. Adjust consistency with pasta water if needed.
- Add Fresh Spinach: Stir in spinach until just wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Ensure everything is heated through.
- Serve and Garnish: Serve warm, garnished with grated Parmesan and additional dill or cracked pepper. Enjoy!

Notes
Ensure salmon is cooked to flaky perfection. Reserve pasta water for adjusting cream sauce thickness. Consider adding vegetables for extra nutrition.
