Creamy Vodka Fettuccine with Tomato, Smoked Salmon, and Caviar

This is a fettucine pasta recipe my friend sent me, which I’ve tweaked slightly. I haven’t seen this on @site_name and since it always gets such raving reviews, I thought I’d share.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic
  • ¼ pound smoked salmon, cut into thin strips
  • 1 large tomato, diced
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons vodka
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 ½ pounds dry fettuccine pasta
  • 2 tablespoons black caviar
  • 2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1
Melt butter in a saucepan or wok over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add salmon and tomato and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2
Increase heat to high and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Pour in vodka, reduce heat, and simmer, until liquid is reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in cream and simmer until liquid reduced by half again, 3 to 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Step 3
Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, add to sauce and toss to coat.

Step 4
Serve sprinkled with caviar and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Cook’s Notes:

The original recipe does say it yields 6 servings, but every time I serve this, I have to at least double the recipe because it goes so fast and everyone wants seconds! Sauce can be used over your favorite pasta – it's delicious over a cheese ravioli!
