September 12, 2013 Salmon With Ribbons of Zucchini Fettuccine
Serves 2
A CookTale
When the the 200 Calories and the 35 Carbs in 2 ounces of pasta restrict you from the enjoyment, try Green or Yellow Zucchini Squash or both together, cut into ribbons with a Mandoline. I have a trick with this rather serious device, and it’s as easy as this. Cover the Vegetable with a potholder as you slice, that way your fingers will be protected from a nasty possible accident. It works every time!
INGREDIENTS
12 ounces of Wild Salmon (in two equal pieces)
2 or 3, 8′” Zucchini’s
1 Small Onion thinly sliced
1 Clove of Garlic (smashed)
12 tsp of dried Aleppo Pepper (optional)
3 TB of Butter
1TB of EVOO
Kosher Salt & Pepper
METHOD
1. Heat a saute pan with the 2TB’s of Butter. When the sizzling stops add the Garlic, Onion & Aleppo Pepper.
After a very few minutes, add the Zucchini ribbons & saute until just tender, another few minutes, season with Salt & Pepper, & remove to a warm bowl.
2. In a second pan, non stick preferred, add another TB of Butter & a TB of EVOO. Saute for about 1-1/2 minutes a side & prepare to plate. With very fresh organic Salmon, the less cooking the better. Remember how great Salmon Sashimi tastes, & that in effect is what you’ll enjoy

This looks fantastic Marve. Whenever I’m dieting, I often substitute matchstick/julienne carrots for noodles in soup (it gives me the feeling I’m eating noodles)! ~ Mel.
