Pasta with Smoked Salmon and Arugala

I got this recipe from my Mom, who got it (I think?) from a restaurant they used to eat at. It works really well with some super-dry white wine, and is surprisingly brisk and satisfying

Ingredients

  • 350 grams spaghetti

  • 2 tsp lemon zest

  • ΒΌ cup lemon juice

  • 2 Tablespoons capers

  • 100 grams arugula

  • 250 grams smoked salmon

Directions

  • Cook pasta in a saucepan of boiling salted water

  • Drain, reserving some pasta water

  • Return pasta to pan, along with all other ingredients. Season well with black pepper.

  • Cook, tossing, over low heat for 1-2 minutes until heated through and arugala begins wilting.
