Cooking Steps

1
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, add bulgur and 1/8 tsp salt. Cover, remove from heat and let stand for 15-16 min, until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed. 
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add almonds to the dry pan. Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer to a plate.
3
  • Cut a piece off the top and bottom ends of grapefruit and orange. Place a flat end on a cutting board, then cut the peel away from top to bottom, turning fruit as you go.
  • When peeled completely, slip a paring knife along each side of the membranes of each grapefruit slice to release segments. Repeat with orange. Place in a small bowl.
  • Into a medium bowl, squeeze leftover grapefruit and orange membranes to release juices. (We'll use it later for the dressing!)
4
  • Peel, then finely mince shallot.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Roughly chop mint leaves. 
  • To the bowl with grapefruit and orange juice, add shallots, vinegar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine
5
  • Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Reheat the large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) olive oil, then add salmon. Cook for 2-3 min, until browned. Flip salmon and continue cooking for 2-3 min, until cooked through.**
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff bulgur with a fork. Add almonds, parsley, mint and citrus segments. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
  • Divide bulgur between plates, then top with salmon. 
  • Drizzle shallot dressing over top.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: The citrus and bulgur combination was refreshing, though some found the grapefruit overpowering. Consider swapping grapefruit for extra orange or mandarin for a milder taste.
  • Ease of prep: Peeling and segmenting the citrus was time-consuming for many. Consider using pre-peeled citrus or cutting fruit into smaller, more manageable pieces.
  • Suggestions: Add feta or a yogurt sauce to enhance flavors. Try a more savory dressing if the citrus-shallot combination feels too harsh.
  • Portions: Some found the portion size satisfying, while others felt it was too small.
  • Leftovers: The dish may not reheat well; consider enjoying it fresh for the best experience.
