Ingredients

  • 2 cups Farro rinsed
  • 7 cups College Inn Chicken Broth divided
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • Kosher Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 3 scallions or green onions sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • 3 cups Kale chopped

Instructions

  • Cook Farro in 2 cups College Inn Chicken Broth according to package directions (replacing water with chicken broth). Liquid should be mostly absorbed at the end of the cooking process.
  • In the meantime, preheat oven to 375°F. Place chicken thighs on cookie sheet and sprinkle lightly with Kosher salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove chicken from oven and cut into bite sized pieces.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt 1 Tablespoon of butter in the skillet, then add the mushrooms, scallions/green onions and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until tender. Add the remaining 1 cup of chicken broth to the pan, then add the cooked chicken pieces and Kale. Cook until Kale has cooked down and shrunk to half its original size.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the bowls, spoon cooked farro into each individual serving bowl, then top with chicken and mushrooms mixture. Serve warm.
