My son is currently having a love affair with farro. 🤷‍♀️. That leaves me searching around for farro recipes, and I didn’t have to go much further then delish Best Farro Salad Ever. Not an overstatement. Everyone loved it. I added grilled chicken breast to add some heft and used earthlychoice microwaveable farro to cut down cooking time. 👩🏻‍🍳. https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a43059/best-farro-salad-recipe/. Best Ever Farro Salad
INGREDIENTS
1 c. whole-grain farro
1 Large shallot, very thinly sliced
1/3 c. extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp. dijon mustard
2 tsp. honey
Freshly ground black pepper
2 c. lightly packed arugula
1 Green apple, chopped
1/2 c. shaved parmesan cheese
1/4 c. freshly chopped basil
1/8 c. freshly chopped parsley
1/4 c. toasted pecans, roughly chopped
DIRECTIONS
* I used Earthly Choice microwaveable farro. After farro is cooked, transfer to a large bowl to cool.
* In the meantime, make fried shallots: in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine oil and shallots. When the shallots begin to bubble, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots are golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove shallots from oil with a slotted spoon and place on a paper-towel lined plate and season with salt. Let oil cool.
* Make dressing: in a medium bowl, combine the cooled olive oil with vinegar, mustard, and honey and season with salt and pepper.
* Assemble salad: combine cooked farro, crispy shallots, arugula, apple, parmesan, basil, parsley, and pecans. Drizzle dressing over salad and toss to coat.
