Cooking Steps

Cook orzo and start prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 475˚F.
  • To a medium pot, add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To the boiling water, add orzo. Cook uncovered for 12-14 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  • Drain and return orzo to the pot, off heat.
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • To an unlined baking sheet, add peppers, and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Roast peppers and salmon
2
  • Roast peppers, in the bottom of the oven for 5-8 min, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden.
  • Meanwhile, line another baking sheet with parchment paper, then drizzle with 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil.
  • Pat salmon dry with paper towels.
  • On the prepared baking sheet, place salmon. Season with salt, pepper and half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend.
  • Spread mayo over top. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 8-12 min, until salmon is cooked through and golden.** 
Finish prep
