Best 3 One Pan Farro With Tomatoes Recipes

ONE-PAN FARRO WITH TOMATOES AND KALE

Steps:

• Add water, farro, onion, garlic, tomatoes, and salt to a medium sized saucepan. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
• Add the kale. Simmer, uncovered, for another 15 minutes.
• Stir in the olive oil, and... you're done! The farro should be chewy but soft, and there will be just the slightest amount of really delicious brothiness left in the pan. Top with your favorite things - I highly recommend the Parmesan and the red pepper flakes. It's almost too simple and too good to be true.

ONE-POT MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN AND FARRO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large braiser or large Dutch oven over high heat and add the olive oil. Pat the chicken thighs dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides. When the oil is hot, add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the chicken, cook for 2 more minutes and remove to a plate. (The chicken will not be cooked through at this point.) Pour off the excess fat from the braiser, leaving behind 2 tablespoons of it.
• Reduce the heat to medium high, add the onions, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the farro until combined. Add the wine and cook for 1 minute, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer, about 2 minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and olives. Place the chicken on top, skin-side up, in a single layer and add any residual juices from the plate.
• Cover the braiser and bake until the farro is tender, most of the liquid has evaporated and the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the lemon zest, feta and dill to a small bowl and toss to combine.
• Remove the braiser from the oven and squeeze the juice of the zested lemon over the top of the dish. Sprinkle with the feta and dill mixture and serve.

ONE-PAN FARRO WITH TOMATOES

Steps:

• Place water and farro in a medium saucepan to presoak (I find just 5 to 10 minutes sufficient) while you prepare the other ingredients. Adding each ingredient to the pot as you finish preparing it, cut onion in half again, and very thinly slice it into quarter-moons.
• Thinly slice garlic cloves as well. Halve or quarter tomatoes.
• Add salt, pepper flakes (to taste) and 1 tablespoon olive oil to pan, and set a timer for 30 minutes.
• Bring uncovered pan (no lid necessary) up to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
• When the timer rings, the farro should be perfectly cooked (tender but with a meaty chew), seasoned and the cooking water should be almost completely absorbed. If needed, though I've never found it necessary, cook it for 5 additional minutes, until farro is more tender.
• Transfer to a wide serving bowl. If there's enough leftover cooking liquid to be bothersome, simply use a slotted spoon to leave the amount you wish to behind. Drizzle farro lightly with additional olive oil, scatter with basil and parmesan. Eat immediately. Repeat tomorrow.
