Finish and serve

Stir in the olive oil, and&#8230; you&#8217;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 &#8211; I highly recommend the Parmesan and the red pepper flakes. It&#8217;s almost too simple and too good to be true.

This is a favorite of mine. -- so easy, adaptable and definitely more than the sum of its parts.

Glad to see that you gave Deb credit. The recipe has been on her site for a number of years (with hundreds of comments). (Also in her 'Smitten Kitchen Every Day" cookbook.)

I'm so very happy to find this recipe in my inbox today, Lindsay, as farro is my absolute favorite grain, and there really are not many recipes utilizing it. I can't wait to make it, as well as share it with my sister! She'd never heard of farro until I introduced her, so she'll be very glad to have it as well. Thanks so much, from both of us!

This is an outstanding recipe.  Followed the directions exactly, adding fresh basil, red pepper flakes, and Parmesan right before serving.  This is a keeper - thanks so much!

This is a really decent base. I did end up adding some balsamic vinegar, and used some vegetable broth instead of water to up the flavor. Next time I might add some tomato paste and sauté the onion and garlic first. Either way, you can’t beat the simplicity of this recipe.

Delicious. And it's so easy. And healthy, too? An absolute winner!

This was absolutely delicious! I had some chicken broth laying around so I used that instead of the water. The olive oil and cheese make it so luscious. Definitely will be making this a ton. I made the chicken meatballs to go with and it was all so easy and stress free.

Thanks, this was delicious! I used my homemade veggie stock in place of the water, added a diced small to medium zucchini in the first step (since I’m currently drowning in squash), and then finished it with about 6 oz of small shrimp that had been sautéed with butter and garlic, in addition to about 2/3 cup of crumbled feta - it was the perfect meal!

Used vegetable broth instead of water. Wonderful vegan recipe

So good and so easy!! I subbed spinach for kale and chicken broth for water—worked out super well. My husband loves the taste and texture of this dish too

I liked it. I think the tomato paste made the sauce a little too sweet. But I’d make it again. Thank you!

So delicious! Thanks for a great SOS recipe!

Easy meal with just a few ingredients—great for warm lunches during the week. In my freezing cold office. I used veggie broth because I had it, and added cannelloni beans.

Absolutely fantastic! Love a simple healthy recipe and this is it!

This was delicious with your chicken meatballs! They go perfectly together. I will definitely be adding this to the regular rotation!

I made this and it was so yummy - way more delicious than I would have expected from this simple list of ingredients!
