Ingredients
  • •

    2 tbsp miso paste

  • •

    2 tbsp white wine vinegar

  • •

    1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions
  1. 1

    Whisk the miso, maca and orange juice together in a bowl and add the nuckhen. Marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Put the farro, black barley, and sorghum in a small pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the grains are tender. Drain the grains and chill.

  3. 3

    Prepare the dressing by whisking together the white wine vinegar and blood orange extract in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and season.

  4. 4

    Drain the nuckhen. Heat the grapeseed oil in a small pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the nuckhen and sear it on all sides. Reduce the heat if it starts to burn.

  5. 5

    In a large bowl, toss the cooked grains, arugula, and peppers with the dressing. Top with the nuckhen and garnish with grated orange zest.
