Author Notes

Famished, this recipe was born from ingredients I have on hand. Quick and easy enough for when you're "hangry" (so hungry, you're angry) but filling and delicious. There are plenty of possibilities and add-ins, but the simplicity of this suits me just fine. —Stephanie

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 8 ounces linguine

Directions

  3. Drain pasta into colander and set aside. Juice lemons. Return pot to medium heat. In pot, melt butter and whisk in lemon juice and anchovies.
  4. Return pasta to pan with lemon butter. Flake salmon and add to pan. Heat through and serve warm. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
