Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining and set the linguine aside.
While the pasta cooks, slice the smoked salmon into thin strips and set aside. Drain and lightly rinse the canned artichokes. Pat them dry and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.
Add the artichokes to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, letting them warm through and take on a slight golden color.
Stir in the lemon zest and heavy cream. Let the mixture simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, allowing the cream to thicken slightly.
Add the drained linguine to the skillet, tossing it with the sauce to coat evenly. If the sauce appears too thick, gradually add some reserved pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, to loosen it.
Gently fold in the smoked salmon strips, lemon juice, chopped parsley, and dill. Toss everything together until the salmon is just warmed through but not overcooked.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, and give the pasta one final toss to combine all the flavors.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh herbs and a sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
