Tuscan Salmon with Rosemary Orzo

This vibrant Tuscan salmon with rosemary orzo is a perfect example of how Mediterranean flavours can transform a simple fish dinner into something truly special. The dish combines succulent pan-seared salmon fillets with fragrant, herb-flecked pasta and a rustic topping of burst cherry tomatoes and salty kalamata olives. Using fresh rosemary and plenty of basil ensures every mouthful is bright and aromatic, while the heart-healthy fats from the fish and olive oil make it as nutritious as it is delicious.

Ideal for a quick weeknight supper or a relaxed weekend meal, this recipe fits beautifully into a balanced diet. The combination of slow-cooked onions and fresh herbs provides a depth of flavour that requires very little added salt. Serve it just as it is for a complete, wholesome meal that brings a taste of the Italian coast to your kitchen table.
