I can't think of a better way to use a small piece of leftover salmon and make the meal out of it.
Ingredients
  • 3 large rainbow chard leaves
  • A piece of salmon (really as large or small as you like)
  • 1 garlic clove
  • ⅓ cup chopped cilantro
  • Olive oil
  • Optional: 3 tbsp white wine
Instructions
  1. Cook your pasta.
  2. Meanwhile, heat 3-4 tbsp of olive oil in a pan. Chop up the chard (cut three times lengthwise and then across), place in a pan. Stir frequently for 2 minutes on medium heat. Add 2 tbsp of water and close the lid. Let the chard steam for 5 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cilantro, sauté for 1 minute. Add wine (if using for adults). Add the cooked salmon (pulled apart into pieces). I used a small piece of leftover salmon and I think it's the best way to create a dish out of it. Stir everything, season wth salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the pasta.
