Instructions

Cook orzo
1
  • Add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
  • Drain orzo, then return to the same pot, off heat. 
  • Add half the garlic spread and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then toss to coat. (TIP: We love using olive oil in this recipe.)
  • Transfer to a large plate or platter to cool slightly. 
Boil eggs
2
  • Meanwhile, add 4 cups (6 cups) warm water to a small pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. 
    Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Using a spoon, lower egg into the boiling water. Cook for 7 min for a runny yolk or 9 min for a set yolk.**
  • Drain and rinse egg under cold water for 30 sec., until cool enough to peel. Peel, then halve eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
Broil salmon
3
  • Line a baking sheet with foil. 
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Combine Zesty Garlic Blend, remaining garlic spread and half the lemon zest in a small bowl. 
  • Pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with pepper.
  • Arrange on prepared sheet, skin-side down. 
  • Spread lemony garlic spread over top. 
  • Broil in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 8-11 min.**
Remaining prep
4
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop parsley. 
  • Peel, then finely chop shallot. 
  • If desired, roughly chop arugula and spinach mix. 
  • Halve tomatoes. 
  • Drain olives, then roughly chop. 
Marinate tomatoes
5
  • Meanwhile, combine lemon juice, mustard, remaining lemon zest, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil in a medium bowl.
  • Add tomatoes, olives and as much raw shallot as desired. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. 
Finish and serve
6
  • Just before serving, add orzo and arugula and spinach mix to the large bowl with tomatoes. Toss to combine. 
  • Divide orzo salad between plates. 
  • Top with salmon and halved eggs. 
  • Sprinkle parsley over top.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
