Directions
Cook the Pasta
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the bowtie pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Cajun Cream Sauce
In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, add the Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir and let simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Blacken the Salmon
Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil and sprinkle Cajun seasoning generously on both sides. Heat a separate skillet over high heat and add the salmon fillets. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and has a blackened crust.
Combine Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, Cajun cream sauce, diced tomato, and chopped green onions. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
Serve
Plate the pasta mixture and top with the blackened salmon fillets. Garnish with additional green onions if desired.
