Step-by-Step Instructions
- Season the salmon fillets with smoked paprika, dried oregano, dried parsley, red chili flakes, and salt. Drizzle with olive oil and rub into the fillets. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon fillets skin-side up in the skillet and cook for 4 minutes. Flip them over, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for another 5 minutes until opaque.
- In the same skillet, add cooked jasmine rice, rinsed chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, olives, and squeeze fresh lemon juice. Cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through, season with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl, combine feta cheese with olive oil, lemon juice, and chopped oregano. Mix until creamy.
- Fold half of the feta mixture into the rice mixture. Place salmon on top and let absorb flavors for a minute. Top with remaining feta mixture and serve.
