Cooking Steps
- Add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 12-14 min.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) orzo water. Drain and return orzo to the same pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Add peppers and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Roast in the bottom of the oven, stirring halfway, until tender and golden, 5-8 min.
- Line another baking sheet with parchment paper, then drizzle with 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil.
- Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt, pepper and half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend.
- Spread mayo over top. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over top, pressing gently to adhere.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, until salmon is cooked through and golden brown, 8-12 min.**
- Meanwhile, cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Add vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Add tomatoes and spinach. Toss to coat.
- Add peppers, roasted pepper pesto, remaining Dill-Garlic Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to the pot with the orzo. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add reserved orzo water, 1-2 tbsp at a time, if desired.)
- Divide orzo, salad and salmon between plates.
- Sprinkle feta over top.
If you've opted to get salmon, prep and season in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and season tilapia. Roast salmon until cooked through, 8-12 mins.**
