Simple Pan Seared Salmon with Basil Butter Pasta

Salmon is a go-to weeknight meal around here and I love how quickly it cooks and that it can be paired with any vegetable or starch to make a healthy and delicious meal. I took one of my favorite childhood dishes, butter pasta, and gave it a delicious twist that pairs perfectly with seared salmon to make a meal that the whole family will love. Basil butter pasta is fresh, comforting, and compliments this simple pan seared salmon in the best way. You will be making this salmon and basil butter pasta dish on a weekly basis because it is so easy and tasty too.

Paella is traditionally a Spanish rice dish that is made with meats and seafood all cooked up in the same skillet that is full of flavor. I created my own twist on the traditional version and created a Cajun version that has all of the same components that makes you fall in love with a Cajun flare that is so delicious. I partnered with my friends at Tony Chachere’s to create this delicious Cajun Paella that is made with andouille sausage, chicken thighs, seafood, and their Creole Spanish Rice Dinner Mix that makes this recipe extra easy to whip up! While this Cajun paella is easy enough for any night of the week, it is also perfect if you are entertaining for family or friends.

Air fryer chicken wings are going to quickly become your new favorite way to prepare wings if you haven’t already tried them. The result is the crispiest chicken wings on the outside with the juiciest of meat inside. I like to amp up that crispiness even more by brining my wings in pickle juice which truly does make that skin extra crispy and delicious. These wings are not only easy to make, but by cooking them in the air fryer they also are done in half the amount of time that it would take you to cook them in the oven. This recipe for pickle brined air fryer chicken wings will be one you will be making all year long.
