Place a large pan over medium heat and warm the pan (if not using nonstick).
-
Add 1 tbsp avocado oil to the pan and let warm up slightly.

Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down, cooking for about three to five minutes or until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for one to two minutes.
-
Now, remove the salmon from the pan and set aside.

In the same pan, add the garlic and the remaining parsley and oregano. Sauté for one minute.

Now add the orzo, water, and cherry tomatoes to the pan. Stir to combine.

To finish, bring the salmon back to the pan. Cover with a lid, turn the heat to low and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the water has absorbed and the orzo is cooked through.

Enjoy.
