Servings
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillet
- 1 block feta cheese
- 1 cup cherry tomato
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup black olive
- 2 tbsp pesto
- 5 oz baby spinach
- 8 oz penne pasta
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- 2Place the feta block, cherry tomatoes, and salmon fillets in a 9×13‑inch baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season evenly with oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- 3Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the tomatoes have burst and softened.
- 4Add the fresh baby spinach to the hot baking dish and let it wilt for 2–3 minutes.
- 5Remove the dish from the oven. Flake the salmon, then mash the baked feta together with the roasted tomatoes to create a creamy sauce. Stir in the black olives and pesto until well combined.
- 6Add the cooked penne pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat. If the mixture seems dry, add a splash of the reserved pasta cooking water and mix until glossy. Serve immediately.
