1 Start by putting your raw, peeled, and deveined shrimp into a bowl. Season with
pepper, garlic powder, and cilantro lime. Mix together and set aside to soak in
the flavors will you work on the rest of the recipe.
2 Next bring 1¼ cups of water to a boil on the stove, in a small saucepot. Once
the water is boiling and the farro and chicken base. Cook at a rolling simmer
for 20 minutes, stirring every 3-5 minutes.

shrimp. Heat a large stovetop pan to medium-low heat. Once the pan is hot, add
your shrimp to the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, then flip the
shrimp over and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Once the shrimp has changed to a
light pink color and is no longer translucent the shrimp is done!

red onion to the same pot with the farro. Mix together and continue cooking for
the remaining 5 minutes.

minute while you finish the rest of the recipe.

lemon juice, black pepper, garlic powder, salt, and fresh cilantro to the farro
