Cooking Directions

  • Cook the farro according to package directions, using the broth instead of water.  While the farro is cooking, season the chicken as desired.  Sprinkle the chicken with the paprika.  Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the chicken and cook until well browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.  Remove the chicken from the skillet, cover and keep warm.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over medium heat.  Add the onion and pepper and cook for 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.  Add the garlic and cook and stir for 30 seconds.  Add the asparagus and cook for 3 minutes or until tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the wine to the skillet and heat to a boil, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.  Stir in the soup and heat to a boil.  Reduce the heat to low.  Stir in the farro and heat though.  Stir in the cheese.  Season to taste.  Serve the chicken over the farro mixture.
