Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb sliced fresh mushrooms
1 small red onion, chopped
1/4 cup crisco extra virgin olive oil
8 oz uncooked orzo pasta
1 can (14-1/2 oz) chicken broth
1/4 cup snipped fresh dill
2 tbsp grated lemon peel
1/2 cup sliced almonds
salt and pepper to taste
salmon:
3 tbsp crisco extra virgin olive oil
4 salmon fillets (5 oz each)
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

For orzo, in a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in oil for 4 minutes. Remove to a small bowl; set aside.
Add orzo and broth to the skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until orzo is tender and broth absorbed, stirring occasionally. Stir in the dill, peel, almonds and reserved mushroom mixture; heat through. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, for salmon, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper. Cook salmon for 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove and keep warm. Spoon orzo onto plates; top with salmon. Yield: 4 servings.
