Also needed
- 1 onion, chopped
- 15 ml (1 tbsp) garlic, minced
Optional
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) dill, chopped
Preparation
- Heat a little olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Cook the onion and garlic for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the fish stock and orzo. Bring to a boil. Stir.
- Add the asparagus, salmon cubes, cherry tomatoes, and dill if desired. Cover and cook for another 7 to 10 minutes, stirring gently from time to time. Season with pepper.
Salmon should maybe be seared prior, asparagus could be sautéed a bit with the onions. I added a few sun dried tomatoes with the sauce. Towards the end i added the tomatoes so as to maintain shape and not become sauce. Parmesan was a nice add to the end
