Salmon And Noodle Bowl

This is not a family recipe my mom made...she didn't make much seafood of any kind as a rule. We like salmon though so I thought I'd share two new recipes:

1 9-oz pkg refrigerated fettuccine
2 T olive oil
1 lb skinless, boneleess 1 inch thick salmon, cut in 8 pieces
salt and ground black pepper
6 cups packaged fresh baby spinach
1/2 c bottled roasted red or yellow sweet peppers
1/2 c reduced-calorie balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing

Prepare pasta according to package directions.

Meanwhile, brush 1 T olive oil on salmon. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat an extra large skillet over medium heat; add salmon. Cook 8-12 minutes or until salmon flakes, turning once. Remove salmon; cover and keep warm. Add spinach, sweet peppers, and remaining oil to skillet. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes, until spinach is wilted. Drain pasta; add to skillet. Add dressing; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
