Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups pearled farro
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, chives, basil, flat-leaf parsley, or chervil, plus small whole leaves for serving
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring broth and 2 cups water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Heat oil in another medium saucepan over medium. Add scallion whites and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add farro; cook, stirring constantly, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring, until absorbed.
  • Add 1/2 cup broth mixture and cook, stirring, until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding broth in this manner, 1/2 cup at a time, until farro is tender but still slightly firm, about 30 minutes. (You may not need all of broth.) Stir in shrimp and peas and cook until shrimp are opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cheese, scallion greens, and chopped herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls, top with herb leaves, and serve.

I had some trouble getting the risotto to the right consistency. It was either too soupy or too dry. Other than that, the dish was flavorful and the shrimp were cooked well.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. However, the shrimp were cooked perfectly and the farro was nice and chewy.
