Recipe View Before serving, top the skillet with freshly chopped cilantro for a burst of fresh flavor.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of chili powder to the vegetables as they cook.
If fresh corn isn't available, frozen corn kernels work perfectly well. Simply thaw them before adding to the skillet.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables! Diced bell peppers of different colors, mushrooms, or even spinach would be delicious additions.
To make this dish even more convenient, cook the farro ahead of time. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
A squeeze of fresh lime juice just before serving brightens the flavors and adds a delightful tang.
