Ingredients
- 2 can (14.5 ounces) fat-free chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt-free lemon pepper
- 1 pound salmon tail fillet, bones & skin removed
- no-stick cooking spray
- 1 heaping cup peeled baby carrots

Instructions
In a large skillet, combine chicken broth, lemon juice and lemon pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, cut the salmon fillet crosswise into 8 equal slices (approx. > inch). Spray a 9 inch glass or metal plate with no-stick spray. Arrange salmon cutlets, cut side down, in a spiral star pattern on plate. Add carrots and beans to pan. Carefully, place salmon plate into pan, on top of vegetables. Cover and cook salmon and vegetables 8 minutes. With tongs or spatulas, carefully remove plate with salmon. Set aside and cover with plastic wrap to keep warm. Add scallions and pasta to the pan. Stir, cover and cook 3 minutes, stirring once during cooking. With a slotted spoon, remove pasta to center of a serving platter. Spoon vegetables to each side of the pasta. Slide salmon star off plate onto the top of the pasta. Spoon any remaining broth over salmon and serve. Makes 2 to 3 servings.
