Cooking Steps

Boil water and marinate tomatoes
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Add 8 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a medium pot (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • To a large bowl, add tomatoes, pesto, half the vinegar (use all for 4 servings), half the garlic salt, half the garlic and 1/4 tsp sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Prep veggies
2
  • Cut zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch slices.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add zucchini, peppers, onions, Zesty Garlic Blend and 1 tbsp oil. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use two baking sheets with half of the Zesty Garlic Blend and 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer.
Roast veggies
3
  • Roast veggies in the middle of the oven 16-20 min, tossing halfway through, until tender. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the middle and the bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
Cook and dress orzo
4
  • To the boiling water, add orzo. Cook 10-12 min, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  • Drain orzo. (TIP: If you prefer cold orzo salad, rinse under cool water after draining.)
  • To the bowl with marinated tomatoes, add orzo. Toss to combine. 
Cook salmon
5
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. 
  • While the pan heats, pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. 
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then salmon. Pan-fry 3-5 min per side until golden and cooked through.** Don't crowd the pan; cook in batches, if needed.
Finish and serve
6
  • To a small bowl, add mayo and as much of the remaining minced garlic as you like. Season with salt and pepper, then combine. (TIP: This is your aioli!)
  • Divide orzo between plates.
  • Top with veggies and salmon. 
  • Dollop aioli over salmon or serve alongside.
  • Sprinkle parsley over top.
7

If you've opted for double salmon, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook the regular portion of salmon. Don't crowd the pan; cook in batches, if necessary.
