Title: Shrimp Scampi w/Orzo
Categories: Seafood, Citrus, Chilies, Vegetables, Pasta
Yield: 4 Servings

1 lb Large shrimp, peeled and
- deveined
3 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
1 tb Lemon zest
+=PLUS=+
1 tb Juice
1/2 ts Red-pepper flakes
Salt & black pepper
4 cl Garlic; minced
2 tb Unsalted butter
1 c Orzo
2 tb Dry white wine
2 c Boiling water, seafood or
- chicken stock
3 tb Fine chopped parsley

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.
