Yummy Orzo Pasta With Shrimp Food

GARLIC-TOMATO SHRIMP RECIPE WITH ORZO

Steps:

• Cook the orzo pasta in boiling water according to package instructions; add a dash of salt and olive oil to the cooking water. When the pasta cooks to al dante, remove from the heat then drain and transfer to a serving dish.
• While the pasta cooks, heat the butter with 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large heavy skillet. Saute the shallots on medium-high heat for 3 minutes or so then add the garlic and toss together briefly. Now add the white wine and cook for 1 minute then add the lemon juice, 1/2 cup water, and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 15 more minutes on medium heat, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in 1 tsp of dried thyme, a pinch of salt and a little cayenne pepper to your taste.
• Add the shrimp and cook for 5 minutes or until the shrimp turns pink. Stir occasionally so that the shrimp is nicely coated in the sauce. Do not over cook the shrimp.
• Finally, stir in the spinach and remove from the heat.
• Top the the cooked orzo pasta with the garlic tomato shrimp. Garnish with your favorite herb (optional) and serve immediately with lemon slices. Enjoy!

ONE POT GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP AND ORZO

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with the olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, red pepper flakes and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet (I like a 12 inch) over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the orzo. Cook, stirring often, until the orzo is slightly golden and toasty. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
• Pour in the chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Reduce it to a simmer and cover the pot. Cook until the orzo absorbs the water and is fluffed up, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add in the shrimp to the orzo and stir. Cover the pot again and cook for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the shrimp is pink, opaque and cooked through.
• Sprinkle with fresh parsley and a spritz of lemon. I like to stir in another 1 to 2 tablespoons of melted butter for optimal flavor, but this is up to you. Serve immediately!

Stir in chicken broth and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat and simmer until pasta is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, peas, lemon juice and shrimp.

SHRIMP WITH ORZO PASTA

Steps:

• Shrimp (shellfish) stock
• To prepare the shrimp stock, in a pan pour 700ml water and add the shrimp heads and shells. Boil over medium heat for 20 minutes. Strain the stock and set it aside.
• Shrimp with orzo
• Finely slice the onion and sauté it over a hot pan for 2-3 minutes. Continue by adding the tomato paste and cook for a further 1 minute. Add the chopped (or canned) tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the shell fish stock in the tomato sauce, stir and add the orzo. Make sure there is enough shell fish stock to cover the orzo so that it can cook properly. Cook the orzo for 10 minutes.
• Finally add the prepared shrimp with the herbs and cook for a further 5-7 minutes. At this point, the orzo would have absorbed all the delicious shellfish stock.
• Shrimp with pasta
• Sauté the finely sliced onion for 2-3 minutes. Carry on by sautéing the garlic for a few seconds. Continue by adding the tomato paste and let it cook for 2-3 minutes. At this point add the chopped or canned tomatoes and season. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Continue by adding the shell fish stock to the tomato sauce. Stir and add the pasta. Cook the pasta for 10 minutes. Make sure there is enough shell fish stock for the pasta. If not, simply add a bit more water.
• Add the prepared shrimps with herbs and cook for a further 5 minutes. The pasta should now have absorbed all the delicious juices from the shellfish stock and the tomato sauce.

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.
