Ingredients
300 ml thickened cream
2 lemons, zested and juiced
2 x 250 g packets Coles Australian Zucchini Noodles
150 g Coles Tasmanian Hot Smoked Salmon Fillets with Pepper, coarsely flaked
1/3 cup coarsely chopped dill
Instructions
- Heat a large frying pan over high heat.
- Pour the cream and lemon juice into the pan and bring to the boil. Cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring gently, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Add the zucchini noodles, flaked salmon, half the lemon zest, and half the dill to the pan.
- Cook for another 1–2 minutes, tossing gently, until the zoodles are tender and the salmon is warmed through.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the remaining lemon zest and dill before serving.
Notes
Add baby spinach or cherry tomatoes for extra color and nutrition.
For a richer sauce, stir in cream cheese or grated parmesan.
Make it dairy-free by replacing cream with coconut cream.
Use smoked trout, cooked prawns, or even fresh salmon as variations.
Serve immediately for best texture—zoodles can release water if left too long.
