🐟Fish🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a fish-free version, swap the salmon for roasted mushrooms or chickpeas for a similar hearty bite. To suit dairy-free or vegan needs, use a plant-based butter and a dairy-free cheese alternative instead of the butter and Parmesan.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad or simply dressed tomatoes to balance the rich, spicy pasta. Warm crusty bread also works well for soaking up the buttery sauce and making the meal feel more complete.
