Salmon With Orzo Oranges And Olives Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook orzo in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• Mix garlic powder, 4 leaves basil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl.
• Place salmon skin side-down on the prepared pan. Brush with 1 tablespoon butter; sprinkle garlic-basil mixture on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 8 minutes. Remove and let rest.
• Place bacon in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook, stirring often, until crispy, about 4 minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and peas. Season with pepper. Cook and stir until peas are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Whisk remaining 3 tablespoons butter, juice from 1 lemon, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl. Pour over the cooked orzo and toss to coat. Season with pepper.
• Divide orzo among 4 plates; top with salmon and place peas on the side. Garnish with the remaining basil. Drizzle remaining lemon juice on top.

Steps:

• Heat broiler to high; place rack 6 inches from heat.
• Season salmon with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper to taste; place salmon on a foil-lined broiler pan; broil until almost done, about 8 minutes and then set aside.
• Mix olives, basil, oil, honey, juice and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl; add cooked orzo and toss to coat; transfer to a platter, then break salmon into large chunks and place over orzo with orange segments.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine bacon, onion, and 1/4 cup celery in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high; cook, stirring, until bacon is beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add orzo; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice and broth; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until orzo is tender and liquid has nearly evaporated, 8 minutes.
• Stir together coriander, zest, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Season fish with spice mixture and nestle into orzo in skillet; cover and transfer to oven. Bake until fish is just cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes; transfer fish to a plate. Let orzo cool 5 minutes, then stir in radicchio with remaining 1/2 cup celery just until wilted. Return fish to skillet and serve, with lemon wedges.
