Directions
In a small bowl, mix water, peanut butter and Sriracha, and set sauce aside. Place farro in a medium-sized bowl. Heat skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp oil. Cook peppers and onions for 3 to 5 minutes, or until softened. Transfer to the bowl with farro. Add spinach to skillet with 1 tsp oil and half of the garlic. Stir and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the same bowl. Pour the rest (1 tsp) of the oil and garlic in the skillet, and add shrimp. Squeeze lime juice on top and cook, stirring often, for 4 to 6 minutes, or until shrimp is opaque. Transfer to the same bowl.
