Delicate Pan Fried Salmon With Creamy Lemon Orzo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- Beautifully seasoned, tender, pan-fried salmon, nestled in a bed of creamy orzo with lemon and parmesan. It feels like a really special dinner, yet it's quick to make and all cooked in one pan (no pre-boiling of the orzo needed).
I love to use orzo as an alternative to risotto for a dinner that cooks in far less time!

Ingredients:
Salmon and spice rub:
▢4 salmon fillets
▢1 Pinch salt
▢1 Pinch garlic salt
▢¼ tsp black pepper
▢⅛ tsp paprika
▢½ tsp dried parsley
Orzo:
▢2 tbsp olive oil
▢2 tbsp unsalted butter
▢2 cloves garlic - , peeled and minced
▢230 g (1 cup plus 2 tbsp) dried orzo
▢480 ml (2 cups) chicken stock
▢60 ml (¼ cup) double (heavy) cream
▢75 g (¾ cup) grated parmesan
▢Zest and juice of ½ a lemon
▢¼ tsp salt
▢½ tsp black pepper
To serve:
▢Small bunch fresh parsley - , finely chopped
▢Lemon wedges
▢Black pepper
Process:
1. Place the salmon fillets on a plate.
2. Mix together the salt, garlic salt, pepper, paprika and dried parsley. Sprinkle onto the top of the salmon and pat it down, so it sticks.
3. Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan (skillet), over a medium-high heat.
4. Add the salmon fillets, skin-side-up (so the part coated with the spice mix is in the oil).
5. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the salmon is golden brown, then remove the salmon from the pan and place on a plate, skin-side-down (we'll continue cooking it shortly).
6. Turn the heat down to medium and add the garlic to the pan. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, so the garlic doesn’t burn.
7. Add the dried orzo to the pan, stir with the garlic, then add the chicken stock and stir again.
Nestle the salmon fillets into the orzo, skin-side down.
8. Turn the heat back up to medium-high and bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 8-9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the orzo is al dente (cooked, but with a little bite). You'll need to move the salmon with a set of tongs to stir the orzo underneath, so it doesn't stick to the pan.
9. Add the cream, parmesan, lemon zest and juice, salt and pepper to the orzo and stir together.
10. Turn off the heat, sprinkle on the chopped parsley and a little black pepper. Arrange the lemon wedges in the pan, then serve.

What is your favourite fish for the family?
Fish fingers. I don't eat enough fish to be fair. Because if I get a bone I throw the whole thing out. I do not like bones. I just have a thing about fish bones I just can't get over.
Natural smoked cod, plaice & salmon 😛😛😛
Tilapia, Catfish and Salmon.
Battered and deep fried whitefish. Preferably cod.
@@tramekn I can't do tilapia. It tastes just like the muddy part you're supposed to remove from catfish. That's no surprise being that it's fed other fish's poo.
Tonight's dinner! Only thing I'll do differently is not return the salmon to the pan until the orzo is almost cooked. It will be much easier not having to keep picking it up to facilitate stirring the orzo. That salmon you used is a beautiful deep color😍
What an easy recipe, never thought about it. It looks very creamy, and the salmon stayed whole, that's a winner. Thank you for sharing ordinary ingredients made into a extraordinary dish.
This is what i'll be cooking tomorrow for Valentine's Day! I forgot all about it today but this recipe looks amazing & it'll get be back in her good books 🤔🤔🤔
It's a wonderful recipe that can be made with just one frying pan! Thanks for the ideas as always!
I made this tonight and it was fantastic. Thank you so much for all the great recipes, they always bring me a lot of joy to recreate, especially the Tuscan chicken. So good!
I made this tonight- it was delicious and ready in 30 minutes!! Thank you for a great recipe.
I'm going shopping tomorrow to pick up the ingredients, I think my family would enjoy this meal. Gonna serve it up with some steamed broccoli and peas :)
I did this yesterday - was very delicious and easy to do. I added some peas as one of our daily portion of veg.
Many thanks for sharing- I like your recipes.
This recipe was my dinner and it was delicious! I am a 1 human household and I did not have a pan that seemed the right size for 1 serving so I made the orzo in a saucepan and pan-seared/oven finished the salmon (my usual method for salmon) ... and then put them together in a pasta bowl. I maybe missed a bit of the texture/taste by doing them separate but no complaints. That lemony-garlicy-herby lightly creamy orzo is wonderful! And it all comes together very fast even if I did have 1 extra pan to wash :)
Yeah I am a one person house too and it is on the menu tomorrow. I will do two fillets and re-warm the second on Tuesday
What a brilliant recipe & video, thank you. I plan to cook this for dinner this evening, but I’ll add a little round of lemon & parsley butter to serve.

I made this for dinner tonight and it was wonderful. I doubled the amount of orzo as we are all proper hungry horaces🤣. It was utterly delish and will be a firm favourite in our household. Thank you for such delicious recipes with fabulous easy to understand finstructions. 👍👍😘😘
You're welcome Rachael so glad you and your family enjoyed it 😋
What a perfect meal! It was quick, involved easy ingredients, and delish. Thank you🙏🌺❤
nice. i dont even really like lemon and this was so appetizing.. i watched the video. it makes me want to eat something with lemon. i love salmon and the orzo looks really good with the cream and parmesan. nice recipe. the only thing i would leave out is the lemon zest and replace it with some lemon juice. great idea for a family friendly dinner.
Finally got around to making this. I made it some frozen peas. Really excellent quick dinner. It was so good my wife said she wants it in the regular rotation!
Love your channel , thanks been struggling with meals as we just bored now so trying new things is amazing.. thanks ..!!

Mouth is watering 🤤 had a salmon risotto for the first time recently and now I can’t get enough of these type of dishes

That's my dinner on Wednesday sorted thanks Nicki x
Trying this tonight, cooking for friends coming over, can’t wait
You and Chris are the best!!!! I cannot thank you both enough!!!!
Our pleasure, thank you so much for watching our videos :)
LOVE orzo!!!! Did I ever miss you!!!
Oh my goodness…this looks delicious!
Wow, great recipe! Thanks
A beautiful recipe, is certainly very tasty and very nice to look at
Looks delicious!
This looks wonderful, any recommendations for a vegetable to put in there?
Lovely Nicky love salmon and all fish xx👍👍🏴🏴
Wow.....looks incredible 👏
I made this today, I halved the quantities but, stupid me...I forgot to halve the amount of lemon 🙄 and it was too lemony, but I managed to eat most of it, the salmon was delicious I had some mixed vegetables with it, I'll definitely try it again 😊
Excellent recipe 👍
Thanks a lot
As we don’t use cream in cooking I wondered if there is an acceptable substitute such as natural yogurt?
Hi Nicky.....love you, your videos and I especially love your quick, easy to prepare and tasty recipes. Many are on regular rotation ( mostly the 30 min. Meals ). I love orzo, make it often but have never made it using salmon. Can I omit the cream and add juice of half a lemon instead?? Thank you 🤗👍💕
Excuse my ignorance, but what is orzo and by what products in the supermarket would it be. It looks an interesting dish and would like to try it.
swap the dried parsley with fresh dill and its even more delicious
What is your go to way to scale fish? I gently run a knife over the fish while holding it under running water ( to minimize the scale flying off in all directions) with a colander to catch the scales so the don’t go down the drain. If there’s an easier way I’m up for it!
Is it ok to replace orzo with rice?
Well orzo is pasta not rice do I wouldn't of thought so
Great recipe thanks, and you look great, love your blouse!
Oh my! That looks special❤
Thank you :)
Absolutely delicious and easy to follow your video.
You are great keep up the good work,
This looks delicious. I'm not sure why some recipes say to use unsalted butter, then they go and add salt anyway. Is there a reason for this? 🤔
Hi nicki ..another fabulous and tasty dinner...is that wild salmon stks?
Best cooking..... Stylish
Looks divine, love your channel.😀
Delicious 🤤
Wowww 🤩
That looks amazing.
Mmm, that's Wednesday's dinner sorted.
And she’s back!!!
👌Super easy
Yum 🥰
Looking so good……💕💕❤️
Could i use chicken instead of salmon?
Is she One Disciples of Pierre White?
Never heard of orzo
hummm
You are so beautiful mashallah, your husband is a lucky man ❤
Is orzo pasta?
Yes
So attractive 😖
Why not skin the fish? I dislike skin intensely
Dish looks yummy but you didn’t descale the salmon skin?? I’ve seen in your other salmon videos you never remove the scales off the skin and then remove the skin later, but u cook the scaly skin in the recipe and surely the scales would mix in the food, definitely not pleasant!
I like some of your recipes but I'm put off by using so much heavy cream and or butter, for high cholesterol it's a no no.
I loved this especially the ending. #1 view provider Promo-SM.
