Method

  1. 01
    Rinse the farro under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine farro, vegetable broth, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain any excess liquid.
  2. 02
    While the farro cooks, prepare the citrus glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, lemon juice, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.
  3. 03
    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet, skin-side down. Brush each fillet generously with the citrus glaze.
  4. 04
    Season the salmon with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. 05
    Once the farro is cooked, transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Add chopped parsley, dill, lemon zest, and olive oil. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. 06
    Serve the salmon fillets over a bed of herbed farro. Drizzle any remaining citrus glaze over the top for extra flavor. Enjoy the vibrant and refreshing dish immediately.
