Hy-Vee Recipes and Ideas

Directions

1. Step1
   In a saucepan, combine farro and 4 cups broth. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 25 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2. Step2
   In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons garlic and carrots, zucchini and onion. Cook and stir for 4 minutes. Add 1/2 cup chopped basil, wine and 1/2 cup broth. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer for 5 minutes or until liquid is reduced by a third. Stir in farro. Season to taste. Top with Romano cheese.
3. Step3
   For shrimp, in a medium bowl combine extra-virgin olive oil, 1/2 cup chopped basil, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons garlic, salt and red pepper. Thread shrimp onto skewers. (If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling.) Generously brush shrimp with oil mixture and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Pat crumbs onto the shrimp to help the crumb coating adhere. Discard any remaining oil mixture.
4. Step4
   Prepare a charcoal or gas grill (with a well-greased grill rack) for direct grilling over medium-low heat.
5. Step5
   Place skewers on grill rack; grill for 6 minutes or until shrimp turn opaque and begin to brown, turning once halfway through grilling.
6. Step6
   Serve shrimp with farro. If desired, garnish with lemon halves and fresh basil leaves.
