Preparation

Cook pasta according to directions on the package until al dente.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a skillet, melt the Canadian butter with the oil. Sauté the garlic and onion for 5 minutes.

Deglaze the pan with the lemon juice and incorporate the Canadian Cream Cheese. Melt for a few minutes, then add the cream and the smoked salmon. Heat for 3 to 5 minutes over a medium heat.

Pour the creamy sauce over each portion of the pasta and sprinkle generously with parsley and capers. Garnish each plate with lemon quarters.
