    I made this with chicken and fresh sockeye (red salmon just caught last weekend here in Alaska. I added some grilled mushrooms, grilled zuchini and grilled red bell peppers to the orzo. It was a fabulous meal, but took longer than 30 minutes. I let the chicken and salmon marinate for about 5 hours out of necessity.... just delicious. Thanks!

    I agree.... too much onion, so I'd cut back. So flavorful. Added some fresh mint, too.

    I had made the orzo salad before and it was awesome. Tonight I did the chicken kabobs as well and they went together wonderfully. I also made Ina Garten's tzatzkik to go with it. Yum-o!

    This is a great summertime salad...I think it makes a big difference to add the hot orzo to all the ingredients. This created a creamy texture which was wonderful, I also added chopped fresh basil and chopped fresh tomatoes which made it really stand out visually and taste farmers market fresh!

    This is such a hit with family and friends. They cannot get enough of the Orzo. Must give this recipe a try. Perfect for Summer! I have used chicken, fish and shrimp. Delicious!

    My family and I loved this dish -- and I have not had a lot of success with Rachel's recipes before. Even my four year old cleaned his plate and asked for more. I now have made the salad several times. I like to substitute chopped spinach for the parsley, which tastes great and also gives the salad extra nutritional value. I also cut down on the onion, as some other comments suggested, and use grape or cherry tomatoes cut in half. You should definitely try this one!

    I think the difference people are noticing between THIS salad and what Rachael did on her show is that she emphasized that it could be served hot or cold. Hence the order matters. I throw it together any old way and it comes out the same every time because I serve it cold. So, the proportions are the same, you just need to sort out what is for the kabobs and what is for the salad!
