Creamy Garlic Salmon Spaghetti
with Nutmeg, Parmesan & Chives
This is our platonic ideal of a pasta meal—dreamy bowls of velvety spaghetti. You’ll simmer up a rich, creamy sauce tinged with a pinch of nutmeg for a subtle hint of warming spice (trust us, it’s the secret ingredient!), then add in al dente pasta and finish with juicy, garlicky seared chicken and a flourish of chopped chives and crushed red chili flakes. Work up that appetite, cause you’re in for a perfect bowl of luxurious pasta ready to be lovingly twirled and devoured.
Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Instructions
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Finely chop chives. Peel and mince or grate garlic.
• Once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes. • Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water (2 cups for 4 servings), then drain.
• While spaghetti cooks, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; place between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with a mallet or rolling pin until chicken is about ½-inch thick. Season all over with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Pat salmon dry with paper towels (no need to pound!). Season all over with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. (For 4 servings, you may need to cook in batches.) Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board. Wipe out pan; let cool slightly.
Swap in salmon for chicken. Cook, skin sides down, until skin is crisp, 5-7 minutes, then flip and cook until cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
• Once spaghetti is drained, heat a drizzle of oil in same pan used for chicken over medium-low heat. Add minced garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. • Add cream sauce base, Parmesan, ¼ cup reserved pasta cooking water, 1 TBSP butter, and ¼ tsp nutmeg (be sure to measure nutmeg—we sent more!). (For 4 servings, use ½ cup reserved pasta cooking water, 2 TBSP butter, and ½ tsp nutmeg.) • Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until warmed through. TIP: If sauce is too thick, stir in more reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time. • Add drained spaghetti to pan and toss until thoroughly coated. Remove from heat.
• Slice chicken crosswise. • Divide creamy garlic spaghetti between shallow bowls. Top with sliced chicken, chives, and as many chili flakes as you like. Serve.
Serve salmon atop creamy garlic spaghetti (no need to slice!).
Salmon is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
