Instructions

Prep
1

Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a medium pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, trim green beans. Roughly chop half the dill (all for 4 ppl). Zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 ppl). Cut any remaining lemon into wedges. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.

Roast veggies
2

Add green beans, tomatoes, 1 tsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) and half the garlic to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the middle of the oven until veggies are tender-crisp, 8-10 min.

Cook orzo
3

Meanwhile, add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6-8 min. Reserve 2 tbsp pasta water (dbl for 4 ppl), then drain and return orzo to the same pot, off heat.

Cook salmon
4

Meanwhile, pat salmon dry with paper towels. Sprinkle lemon zest over top, then season with half the garlic salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then salmon. Pan-fry until golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.**

Finish orzo
5

Add reserved pasta water, dill, remaining garlic, remaining garlic salt, 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1/2 tbsp butter (dbl both for 4 ppl) to orzo. Season with pepper, then stir to combine.

Finish and serve
6

Divide orzo, salmon and roasted veggies between plates. Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
