Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°C. Toss pecans with maple syrup in small bowl. Add sugar,salt,and cayenne; toss to coat. Spread coated nuts onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 5-10 minutes. Set aside and cool.
While the oven is still hot, spread 1 cup of millet on a baking sheet and toast for 5 minutes. Bring 2 cups of Campbell?s broth to a boil in a medium pot. Add toasted millet; cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until all the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Rinse in a fine colander and set aside to cool.
Whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, and a dash of salt in a large bowl. Add cooled millet. Shave fennel and onion directly into the bowl with a mandoline, or slice thin on a cutting board and add to the dressing and millet. Add orange slices, mint, and parsley leaves. Toss lightly to combine. Garnish with additional herbs and candied pecans.
