Ingredients
Method
- Begin by adding the bulgur wheat and water to a saucepan, along with a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the bulgur is tender.
- While the bulgur wheat cooks, season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and a splash of lemon juice. In a frying pan, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat and cook the fillets for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Once done, remove the salmon from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the chopped red and green bell peppers, along with the red onion. Sauté the vegetables for 3-5 minutes until they become tender and slightly charred.
- While the vegetables cook, wash and chop the romaine lettuce. Set it aside.
- To serve, layer the bulgur wheat, sautéed vegetables, and fresh lettuce in a bowl. Place the salmon fillets on top, drizzle with a splash of lemon juice, and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. For an extra touch, garnish with a lime wedge.
Notes
Note: For an alternative, feel free to swap the salmon for your preferred protein, such as chicken, prawns, or another type of meat.
