Mediterranean Salmon Orzo Bake

How to make it

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. 2

   In a medium baking dish, combine the uncooked orzo, cherry tomatoes, and basil pesto. Stir everything gently to coat the orzo and tomatoes evenly. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Nestle the salmon fillets on top of the orzo mixture. You want them to sit comfortably without being fully submerged.

4. 4

   Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese generously over the entire dish, making sure some falls onto the salmon and some into the orzo.

5. 5

   Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the orzo is tender. If the orzo looks dry, you can loosely cover the dish with foil for the last 5-10 minutes to help it steam.

6. 6

   Carefully remove the dish from the oven. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious and easy meal!
