cloves garlic, minced
2
1 lbs
fresh skinless boneless salmon, cut into 1 1/2 inch 4cm pieces
500 g
1/2 cup
white wine
125 mL
1/2 cup
chicken broth
125 mL
2 Tbsp
lemon juice
30 mL
2 Tbsp
freshly chopped marjoram (or 1 tsp/5 ml dried)
30 mL
1/2 lbs
asparagus, washed, trimmed and cut into 1 inch / 2.5 cm pieces
250 g
4 cup
baby arugula leaves
1 L
salt and pepper to taste
12 oz

350 g

Directions:

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat canola oil. Add shallots and garlic and sauté 1-2 minutes. Add salmon and cook through, turning once, approximately 5 minutes. Add white wine, chicken broth, lemon juice and marjoram. Let simmer about 3 minutes. Add asparagus pieces and continue to cook until asparagus is tender, about 2-3 more minutes. Sir in arugula leaves and chopped basil. Continue to cook, about 1 minute, until arugula leaves have just wilted. Season with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, cook farfalle in a large amount of boiling water until just tender, following package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water, and return to pot. Add salmon mixture to pasta and add some of the reserved pasta water if needed. Gently toss ingredients. Serve immediately
