Preparation Steps
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Zest and juice two lemons, mince three cloves of garlic, rinse two tablespoons of capers, and chop parsley. Cut salmon fillets into even pieces.
- Cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions (typically 4-6 minutes). Reserve half a cup of pasta water before draining.
- Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Dredge one side of each salmon piece in the flour.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon pieces floured-side down for 2.5-3 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-4 minutes until cooked through.
- Remove salmon from the skillet. Deglaze with lemon juice, add garlic and dairy-free butter, stirring until melted. Mix in broth and capers, simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Return salmon to skillet, spoon sauce over it, and warm together for 1-2 minutes.
- Serve pasta on plates, top with salmon and sauce, and garnish with parsley.

Notes
For best flavor, avoid overcooking the salmon and deglaze the pan after searing.
