Ingredients

For Lobster Orzo & Cheese

For Butter Poached Salmon

    Directions

    Step1

    Pat salmon dry with a paper towel, salt and pepper both sides.

    Step2

    Make Lobster Orzo and Cheese. Add a tablespoon of butter to a large saucepan. Heat on medium heat and add 1 cup of chopped spinach. Sauté a few minutes until wilted.

    Step3

    Add in orzo and stir.

    Step4

    Next add in lobster broth. I use Better Than Bouillon and it tastes awesome. Turn down the heat to a simmer and cover saucepan with a lid, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes. Once liquid has absorbed remove from heat and add 2 heaping tablespoons of mascarpone cheese and stir.

    Step5

    While orzo cooks add 2 tablespoons of butter to a medium-small pan. Melt the butter, get the pan hot and add in your salmon. Brown the salmon and add more butter to the pan, spooning the hot butter over the salmon fillets continuously as the cook.

    Step6

    Once orzo is tender and salmon is poached, add a generous spoonful of lobster and cheese orzo to your plate and a butter poached salmon fillet. Enjoy!
