Description
A hearty bowl featuring jerk-seasoned vegetables, farro, and sweet maple herb apples.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pearled farro
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 zucchini, chopped
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons jerk seasoning
- 1 large apple, cored and diced
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook farro: Combine farro and vegetable broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and farro is tender. Fluff with a fork.
- Sauté vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
- Season vegetables: Stir in jerk seasoning and cook for 1 minute more. Remove vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook apples: In the same skillet, add diced apple, maple syrup, thyme, and rosemary. Cook over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender-crisp.
- Assemble bowls: Divide cooked farro among serving bowls. Top with the jerk vegetables and the maple herb apples. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
- You can substitute farro with quinoa or brown rice if preferred.
- Adjust the amount of jerk seasoning based on your spice preference.
