Steps:

  • For the dressing: Whisk together the olive oil, tapenade, vinegar, oregano and chili paste in a large bowl. Season with the salt.
  • For the salad: Add the chopped romaine, roasted red pepper, fennel, provolone and salami to the dressing. Toss well to coat.
  • For the pasta: Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the par-cooked pasta and fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with the salt. Sprinkle the crispy orzo over the top of the salad and serve.

2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup par-cooked orzo pasta (see Cook's Note)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

SPINACH-ORZO SALAD WITH CHICKPEAS

The first version of this salad was an experiment in mixing together some random ingredients I had on hand. It was a success, and several people at the party asked for the recipe...which meant I had to re-create it! It's healthy, delicious and perfect for warm-weather days. -Glen White, Kissimmee, Florida
