Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Heat the farro and toss with spinach
Choose your heating method (for microwave option, heat just before serving):
Our chefs think this cooks best in the microwave.
- Microwave oven | 5–6 minutes
Transfer the farro-apricot blend and the aromatics to a microwave-safe dish and stir together. Sprinkle the farro mixture with 2 tablespoons water. Place a damp paper towel over the top of the dish and microwave for 3 minutes. Stir, re-cover, and microwave for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until heated through.
- Conventional oven | 25–30 minutes
Heat the oven to 425°F.
Transfer the farro-apricot blend and the aromatics to an ovenproof dish and stir together. Sprinkle the farro mixture with 2 tablespoons water. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Stir, re-cover, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until heated through.
Transfer the farro to a large bowl and toss with the spinach and Dijon-caper dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
While the farro is heating, cook your protein.
2
Cook your protein
- Pat your protein dry with a paper towel (if using shrimp, rinse and drain, then pat dry). Season the protein with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add your protein.
Fish: Cook (skin side down for salmon) until lightly browned (and the salmon skin is crisp), 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 1 to 2 minutes for salmon and 2 to 4 minutes for halibut. Transfer to a cutting board to cool slightly. Using a fork or knife, flake or cut into 2-inch pieces (discarding the salmon skin if desired).
Jumbo shrimp: Cook the shrimp, turning once, until firm and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Chicken: Cook the chicken, turning once, until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until firm, cooked, and hot throughout, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut into ½-inch-thick slices.
Steaks: Cook the steaks, turning frequently, until they are well browned and medium-rare, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut into ½-inch-thick slices.
Serve
Transfer the farro and spinach to individual bowls and add your protein. Spoon the green goddess dressing on top and serve.
