Tried this with one modification. Used rice instead of Orzo, did not have it handy at home.Mixed it with mushroom at the end, served the salmon on top with wine sauce.(used chianti, but cabernet would probably go better My wife & I loved it. One suggestion : used some chopped garlic in addition to onions for the wine sauce. I guess garlic powder would be okay too. Overall, marvelous recipe, worth trying for special days.

I agree the wine sauce was lacking. I added 2 dashes of cinnamon, 3 teaspoons of brown sugar, 1 packet of splenda, salt to taste, pepper to taste, Italian herb seasoning, 20 more thyme sprigs and a half glass of pinot noir. (I used a merlot for the base. The result of all of the additions was an amazing red wine sauce.

the ORzo was amazing, I added another 1/2 cup of cream LOL. I did not used the salmon recipe as I had Beef medallions wrapped in bacon seared at high heat for 2 1/2 mins on both sides, and warmed on low for 10 mins. This resulted in a medium rare beef medallion.

my lady and I agreed we would have paid 25 dollars minimum for this dish. Just because the sauce tastes like <expletive> it does not mean you have to accept it. Add spices and herbs to it to adjust it to your taste buds and what you are cooking.

I made this for my guy last night. The Orzo was YUM, and the Salmon was great (way too much butter, though. The wine sauce never thickened, and was tasteless. That was so disappointing; however, it didn't take away from how wonderful the dish was!

I made this for my boyfriend last night and it was fantastic. It was fairly simple and didn't really take that long. I really enjoyed the combination of flavors.
