    tips & techniques
    Cook the farro
    1 Cook the farro

    Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, add the farro and cook, uncovered, 18 to 20 minutes, or until tender. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot. Cover to keep warm.

    Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Cut off and discard the stem of the bell pepper; remove the core, then large dice. Quarter the zucchini lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces.

    Roast the chickpeas & vegetables
    3 Roast the chickpeas & vegetables

    Line a sheet pan with a layer of paper towels; spread the chickpeas onto the paper towels. Using a second layer of paper towels, gently pat or roll the chickpeas to thoroughly dry; discard the paper towels and any loose chickpea skins. Drizzle the chickpeas with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer on one side of the sheet pan. Place the diced bell pepper and zucchini pieces in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and enough of the spice blend to coat (you may have extra). Toss to coat. Transfer to the other side of the sheet pan and arrange in an even layer. Roast 16 to 18 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork and the chickpeas are crispy (be careful, as the chickpeas may pop as they roast). Remove from the oven.
