Linguine with Salmon

8 ounces dry linguine, fettuccine or spaghetti

6 ounces cooked fresh salmon or thinly sliced, smoked salmon (lox-style)

2 green onions, thinly sliced

1 garlic clove, finely minced

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

1 cup whipping cream

1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dillweed

1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel

Freshly ground pepper to taste

2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Freshly grated Parmesan cheese for accompaniment

Lemon wedges for accompaniment

1. Cook pasta according to package directions, preferably al dente (firm to the bite). Drain; keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, break the fresh salmon into chunks or cut the smoked salmon into thin bite-size stripes; set aside.
3. For sauce, in a large skillet cook the green onions and garlic in butter until tender. Stir in the whipping cream, fresh dill or dillweed, lemon peel and pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Stir in salmon; heat through. Remove from heat. Gently stir in Parmesan cheese.
4. Arrange pasta on individual plates or a large serving platter. Spoon the sauce over the pasta. Pass the Parmesan cheese to sprinkle over individual servings along with the lemon wedges.

Makes 4 servings.
