Instructions
Cook the Farro
Combine rinsed farro with 3 cups of water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes until tender but still pleasantly chewy. Drain any excess water.
Roast the Chickpeas
Spread drained chickpeas on a parchment-lined baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt, and roast at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and crispy.
Make the Tzatziki
Combine Greek yogurt, grated and squeezed cucumber, minced garlic, and fresh dill in a bowl. Stir well and season with salt. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Assemble the Bowl
Divide warm farro between bowls, spoon tzatziki generously on top, and scatter crispy roasted chickpeas over everything. Finish with extra fresh dill and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
