Ingredients

- 1 pound linguine

- 1/2 pound salmon fillet, skin and bones removed

- 1 large can tomato puree (28 ounces)

- 3 fresh cloves garlic

- 1/4 cup olive oil

- 1/2 cup white wine

- 1 tablespoon parsley, minced

- Salt

Directions

1. Prepare the water for the pasta according to the manufacturer's instructions.

2. Roughly chop the garlic and put it in a skillet over medium heat with the olive oil. Sauté until the garlic begins to sizzle.

3. Add the white wine to the skillet and simmer for 2 minutes.

4. Add the tomato puree and 1/2 a can of fresh water to the skillet. Add a small amount of salt to taste. Cover the pan, raise the heat to medium-high and bring the sauce to a boil, about 6 - 8 minutes.

5. Once the sauce begins to boil, lower the heat back to medium and add the salmon. Cover and let the salmon cook for 10 - 12 minutes.

6. Cook the linguine until it reaches al dente according to the manufacturer's instructions.

7. Uncover the pan, break up the salmon into chunks and add the parsley. Stir the sauce to mix well; taste it and add salt as needed. Continue simmering the sauce, uncovered, so that it reduces and thickens.

8. Drain the pasta well and add it to the pan with the sauce. Turn off the heat and mix the pasta and sauce thoroughly.

9. Plate the pasta and serve.
