Pasta with fish: easy and quick ideas for a delicious dinner

Pasta is always a quick and easy option for dinner, but sometimes we want something a bit more filling and healthy. That’s where fish comes in. Fish is a fantastic source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other nutrients. Together with pasta, it makes a perfect, easy, and nutritious meal. Here are some ideas for making a delicious pasta dinner with fish.

1. Tomato and tuna pasta

This simple recipe features canned tuna, which is very convenient and affordable. Cook spaghetti according to package directions, and while it’s cooking, sauté some garlic and onion in a pan. Add canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), capers, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. When the sauce comes together, add tuna and stir it in. Season with salt and black pepper, and mix in the cooked pasta. Serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.

2. Lemon and salmon pasta

Salmon is a great fish for pasta because it’s rich and flavorful. This recipe uses fresh salmon, but you could also use canned salmon if you prefer. Cook penne pasta and set it aside. In a skillet, cook diced shallots and garlic until soft. Add chopped fresh salmon, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Let the salmon cook until it’s just cooked through, and then stir in the pasta. Add a splash of cream or Greek yogurt to make the sauce creamy. Serve with a sprinkle of chopped fresh dill or parsley.

3. Spicy shrimp and linguine

Shrimp is a quick-cooking protein that pairs well with pasta. Cook linguine while you sauté garlic and red pepper flakes in a pan. Add peeled and deveined shrimp and let them cook until pink. Scoop out the shrimp and add some white wine to the pan. Let the wine reduce, and then add butter and chopped parsley. Combine the shrimp and linguine with the sauce, and serve with a squeeze of lemon.

4. Cod and vegetable pasta

This recipe is a great way to sneak in some vegetables. Cook farfalle (aka bowtie pasta) and set it aside. In a pot, cook diced potatoes until tender, and then add diced carrots, zucchini and sliced bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are lightly browned. Add cod fillets, and let them cook until the flesh is opaque. Combine the vegetables and cod with the pasta and drizzle with olive oil. Top with chopped fresh basil or oregano.

5. Creamy crab and spaghetti

Crab meat is a luxurious addition to pasta. Cook spaghetti and toss with crab meat. In a saucepan, heat some butter and heavy cream, and whisk in grated Parmesan cheese until melted. Add chopped fresh parsley and the spaghetti. Toss until the spaghetti is coated with the creamy sauce. Serve with a sprinkle of black pepper.
