Ever tried farro? I fully admit I never had before this weekend. If you asked me what it was I would have said "some kind of grain?" Turns out it is a delicious, flavorful grain, that cooks up similar to rice or quinoa. Boil water, add the farro (you're suppose to rinse it first- I may have forgotten this step... whoops) and simmer until all the water is gone!

You Will Need (10 things)

  • Olive Oil
  • 1 box Tuscan Fields Farro Perlato Mushroom(s) (9.1 oz)
  • 1 medium Onion , chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic , chopped
  • ½ tsp dried Rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 oz white Mushroom(s) , sliced
  • 3 cup baby Spinach leaves, washed and patted dry
  • 2 6oz Salmon filets
  • Balsamic Reduction for drizzling

Steps (3 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cook farro according to package instructions. While it is simmering, heat a large pan and drizzle with olive oil. Saute onion until slightly brown. Add in mushrooms, rosemary and garlic and let them sit for 4-5 minutes without stirring. Add in spinach and toss until they are wilted. Once farro is done add to pan and set aside.

  2. 2

    Drizzle salmon with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill about 2 minutes each side (will depend on thickness of steaks and heat level). Do not over cook... seriously, overcooked salmon tastes like rocks.

  3. 3

    Serve farro with grilled salmon on top. If desired lightly drizzle with olive oil and a balsamic reduction.
