GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND FARRO SALAD



Grilled Asparagus and Farro Salad image

This superfood salad uses the ancient whole grain farro as its base, it has a nutty flavor and satisfying chew (not to mention eight grams of fiber per serving). To compliment and add texture to every bite, stalks of asparagus are grilled, chopped, and tossed in along with lemon zest, almonds, fistfulls of dill and scallions, and briny feta cheese. Great on its own as a vegetarian meal, this recipe can also serve as a formidable co-star to any grilled chicken dish.

Provided by Becky Rosenthal

Categories     Side Dish

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup uncooked farro (semi-pearled or pearled)
1 lb fresh asparagus spears
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel (1/2 medium)
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice (1/2 medium)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup pecans
1/3 cup feta cheese

Steps:

  • In 2-quart saucepan, heat 4 cups water to boiling. Stir in farro; return to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces, leaving heads full. In 10-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add asparagus and shallot; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until desired doneness (some like asparagus more tender, while others prefer a little fresh crunch). Remove asparagus from skillet to plate; set aside.
  • Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the lemon peel and lemon juice to skillet. Heat over low heat, scraping bottom of skillet with wooden spoon to loosen browned bits. Stir in salt and pepper. Set sauce aside.
  • Drain cooked faro in strainer or colander; rinse. In large serving bowl, toss faro with asparagus, pecans and feta cheese. Drizzle sauce over top.
