Savory Garlic Butter Salmon with Asparagus Linguine Delight

Cook the Linguine: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine according to package instructions until al dente, about 9-11 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water, and set the pasta aside.

Cook the Salmon: While the pasta is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Cook the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set it aside.

Prepare the Asparagus: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the asparagus and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender, but still crisp. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Combine: Add the cooked linguine to the skillet with the asparagus and garlic. Toss the pasta to combine. If needed, add some reserved pasta water to help coat the pasta in the garlic butter sauce.

Finish and Serve: Flake the cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces and add it to the skillet with the pasta. Toss everything together, then squeeze lemon juice over the dish and garnish with fresh parsley.
