Name: Honey-Mustard Chicken with Asparagus Farrotto
Total time: 1 h
Ingredients: 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided; 1 cup farro; 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided; 1 pound chicken tenders; 1 tablespoon dry mustard; ¾ teaspoon salt, divided; ¾ teaspoon ground pepper, divided; 1 1-pound bunch asparagus, trimmed and chopped; 2 tablespoons honey; ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper; ½ cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add farro and cook, stirring frequently, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Add 3 cups broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover and cook until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 2

Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with mustard and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, flipping once, until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and asparagus to the skillet. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the asparagus to the farro and stir until the mixture is creamy, about 2 minutes.
Step 4

Add the remaining 1 cup broth, honey and crushed red pepper to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until the sauce is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken and turn to coat.
Step 5

Stir parsley into the farro. Serve the farro topped with the chicken and the sauce.
