Yummy Orzo Pasta With Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente (tender but still firm). Drain.
• Toss with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil; set aside.
• Heat remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add garlic; cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes or until golden.
• Add shrimp; cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes or until shrimp are opaque (do not overcook).
• Stir in pasta, tomatoes, cilantro, parsley and lemon juice continue to cook until all is heated through.
• Sprinkle with feta cheese. Season to taste and serve.

Steps:

• First what you have to do is cook your orzo for about 10 minute Get the water to a boil then through in the pasta. To find out when its ready throw a piece of orzo at the kitchen wall if it sticks it's ready! If it falls cook it some more!
• Next pour about 2 cups of orzo through a drainer. Make sure all the water is out of there, next put it in a bowl and get ready for making the Alfredo sauce and the shrimp!
• To cook the shrimp all you need to do is boil as many as you need for about 7 min till they are the color red!
• Once the shrimp are done, follow the directions on the packet of the Alfredo sauce mix. Once that is done add everything together, mix it well and bon appetit!

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together shrimp, 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon zest, red-pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and half the garlic. Set aside to marinate. (This step can be done up to 1 hour in advance.)
• Add butter, remaining olive oil and remaining garlic to a medium skillet set over medium heat. When the butter starts to bubble, add the orzo and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the orzo is toasted, about 2 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent the garlic from burning. Carefully add the wine - it will bubble - and stir until absorbed, about 1 minute. Stir in water, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until orzo is al dente, about 12 minutes.
• Add the shrimp in a snug, even layer on top of the orzo, cover, and cook until all the shrimp is pink and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, 2 minutes.
• Sprinkle with parsley and lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
