Clock

Ingredients

  • 9 oz whole wheat orzo (1½ cups)
  • 6 cups sliced green beans (about 2-inch pieces)
  • 1½ lb skinned salmon fillets
  • ¾ cup refrigerated lemon vinaigrette (such as Marzetti Simply Dressed), divided 
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 3 cups grape tomatoes
  • ½ cup diced red onion
  • ¾ cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh dill, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat broiler. Cook orzo according to package directions, adding beans 4 minutes before end of cooking time. Drain in colander and run under cold water to cool quickly; drain well.
  2. Meanwhile, place fish on a foil-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Rub with 2 Tbsp vinaigrette; sprinkle with pepper. Broil 7 to 9 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork.
  3. Toss together orzo mixture, tomatoes, onion, cheese, ⅔ cup vinaigrette and 2 Tbsp dill in a bowl. Flake fish into large pieces, and arrange over pasta salad; sprinkle with 1 Tbsp dill.
