Although I am a professional chef, I would not think this recipe would be come in with a level 4 of difficulty. The orzo and scallops are a perfect matching for balance and taste. I recommend basil in place of the dill as the preferred herb of choice. Whatever you prefer, this dish is savory and worth placing in your repatoire of dishes. Enjoy.

  I think you misread the difficulty level, it has a difficulty of 3 which means it is at a skill level of the average home cook.
