Salmon, Tenderstem Broccoli and Chilli Orzo Traybake
by Ed Barrow
This traybake is perfect for an easy, simple dinner that doesn’t scrimp on flavour. The orzo is baked in fish stock with plenty of chilli and garlic running through it. Served with tenderstem broccoli and salmon fillets, it makes for a very healthy bowl of pasta. If you want to reduce the serving size then ensure the tray used to bake the dish is small enough for the orzo to be covered by the stock.
Method
Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan), 400°F, Gas Mark 6. Add a generous splash of oil to a frying pan (skillet) and place over a medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and fry for 4 minutes until softened slightly. Then add the garlic and fresh chilli and fry for a further 2 minutes.
Step 2
Transfer the fried onion, garlic and chilli to a small deep oven tray (pan) or baking dish. Add the orzo and fish stock, squeeze in the lemon juice and season well with salt and pepper. Gently mix everything together before covering the tray with foil to seal. Bake for 15 minutes.
Step 3
After 15 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and take off the foil. Stir the cream and tenderstem broccoli into the orzo until well combined. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, the chilli flakes and the lemon zest.
Step 4
Gently place the salmon fillets on top of the orzo. Re-cover the tray with the foil and return it to the oven for a further 14 minutes.
Step 5
Remove from the oven after 15 minutes; the salmon will be cooked through and the broccoli tender but with a slight bite. Lift the salmon fillets off the orzo and set aside. Add the dill and stir everything together before spooning into 2 bowls. Top each one with a salmon fillet
