ingredients

10 oz Cooked Farro
4 oz Grape Tomatoes

step-by-step

instructions

Cook Along

1 Prepare the ingredients & cook the salmon

Wash, dry, and halve the tomatoes. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Season only on the skinless side with the oregano. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned salmon, skin side down. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until the skin is browned and crispy. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through.* Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a plate, skin side up; cover with foil to keep warm.

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for fish.

2 Cook the vegetables

In the pan of reserved fond, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high heat until hot. Carefully add the halved tomatoes, peppers, currants, and half the vinegar (you will have extra); season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened.

3 Add the farro & serve your dish

Add the farro and a drizzle of olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until combined and heated through. Turn off the heat. Serve the cooked farro and vegetables topped with the cooked salmon. Drizzle with the tzatziki and garnish with the almonds. Enjoy!
