Cooking Steps

Cook farro
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
    Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add farro, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt and 3 cups (6 cups) water. Bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. 
    Cook uncovered for 20-24 min, until farro is tender but still firm to the bite. Strain farro, then return to the pot, off heat.
Prep
2
  • Trim green beans. 
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch strips. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic. 
  • Roughly chop parsley. 
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges. 
Cook chicken
3
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. To a large bowl, add chicken, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) olive oil, half the lemon zest and half the garlic. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper, if you like.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. Add 1/2 tbsp (2 tbsp) olive oil. When hot, add chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches, if needed.)
  • Cook 1-2 min per side, until golden. Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet. Carefully wipe the pan clean.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 7-9 min, until cooked through.**
Cook veggies

  • Reheat the large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add green beans, peppers and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates.
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) olive oil. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until green beans are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper, if you like.
