PREPARATION

  • 1

    Cook the orzo according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a splash of the pasta water.

  • 2

    In a small bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley, dill, lemon zest (from the halved lemon), garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  • 3

    Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel. Lightly brush both sides of the salmon with olive oil and press the herb mixture onto the flesh side to create a crust.

  • 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon fillet, herb-side down. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.

  • 5

    Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon reaches your desired doneness.

  • 6

    Meanwhile, toss the cooked orzo with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a teaspoon of olive oil. If needed, add reserved pasta water to loosen the texture.

  • 7

    Plate the lemon orzo and gently place the herb-crusted salmon on top. Garnish with extra fresh herbs and a light drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
