SHRIMP AND ORZO SALAD
There are so many shapes of pasta out there. One of my favorites is orzo: rice-shaped pasta. I do not see it used as often as its more popular relatives like spaghetti, penne, linguine et al, which is a shame. I love the fact that orzo can be treated like rice and used to make tomato-based (jollof) or stir-fried dishes. It can be creamy like a risotto or made like rice and served with a stew or sauce. Here I use it to make a cold salad with shrimp and sweet cherry tomatoes. Use a lot of garden-fresh herbs to elevate this salad and feel free to add more vegetables if you want.

- When the pasta is finished cooking, drain and rinse to cool. Immediately toss in some of the vinaigrette, along with the cucumber, tomatoes, herbs, red onion and remaining olives. Mix well. Add more dressing to taste. Top with the goat cheese and serve.

- Cook orzo according to directions in salted water. During the last two minutes of cooking, add the frozen corn to the water. Drain the corn and orzo together and run cool water over it until it's sufficiently cooled, shaking off any excess water as best you can when you're done rinsing. Meanwhile, while the orzo is cooking, make the dressing and cook the shrimp.
- In the bottom of a large bowl, mix together the olive oil (1/4 cup), lemon zest and juice, the fresh herbs (1/4 cup), crushed red pepper (1/4 teaspoon), minced garlic (1 small clove), 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and honey (1 tablespoon).
- Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a medium bowl, mix the shrimp with 2 tablespoons of the dressing, along with another pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high for about one minute, then cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until fully cooked (you may need extra oil in addition to the dressing if you use another kind of skillet).
