Dinner 45 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups 1% milk
  • 1 ½ cups grated smoked fontina cheese, divided
  • 1 pinch garlic salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (12 ounce) package fusilli pasta
  • 6 ounces cold-smoked Coho salmon, flaked
  • ¼ cup panko bread crumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Melt butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes. Gradually pour in milk and continue to whisk until sauce is smooth and creamy. Simmer until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 cup fontina cheese, garlic salt, and pepper; set aside.
  • Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add fusilli and cook for about 5 minutes. Drain. Return pasta to the pot and pour in bechamel sauce. Mix with a wooden spoon until pasta is completely coated with sauce. Gently stir in flaked salmon.
  • Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Smooth out the top and sprinkle with remaining fontina cheese and panko.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden brown on top, about 25 minutes.
