Instructions
- Put the salmon cubes in a bowl with the olive oil, oregano, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, turmeric and salt, and toss until every piece is coated.
- Put the rice in a saucepan with the dill weed, salt and olive oil. Add 1½ cups of water, or enough to sit about an inch above the rice. Bring the heat to medium-high and cook until most of the water has evaporated, about 15 minutes.
- Cover the pan with a paper towel under the lid. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 10 more minutes. Turn off the heat and let the rice rest for 10 minutes.
- While the rice cooks, heat a nonstick pan over medium-high. Sear the salmon for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Mix the chopped tomatoes and cucumbers with the olive oil, lemon juice, sumac and kosher salt in a bowl to make the salad.
- Divide the rice among serving bowls, then top with the salmon and the salad.
