Ingredients
chili lime dressing
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 lime juiced and zested
- 1 ½ tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons Chili oil
- ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
shrimp orzo
- 2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt kosher salt
- black pepper kosher salt
- 1 pound orzo
- 1 ½ cups corn
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- ½ cup cilantro chopped, fresh
- ¼ cup chives chopped fresh
Instructions
chili lime dressing
- Whisk together the vinegar, lime juice and zest, honey and chili oil. Stream in the olive oil while whisking until emulsified. This stays great in the fridge for a few days - just shake or whisk before serving.
shrimp orzo
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the orzo according to the package instructions. When finished, drain and place the orzo in a large bowl. You can drizzle with a touch of olive oil and toss so it doesn’t stick.
- Preheat your grill to the highest setting.
- Place the shrimp in a bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss. Sprinkle all over with the paprika, garlic powder, and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well until combined. Spread the shrimp out on a grill pan.
- Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes with the lid closed, then flip and grill for 1 to 2 minutes more, just until it’s pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp.
- Toss the orzo with a few tablespoons of the chili lime dressing. Add in the shrimp, corn, feta and herbs and toss. Drizzle with more of the dressing and toss.
- This can be served warm or cold - leftovers are great straight from the fridge. If you serve it cold, I do suggest keeping some of the dressing on the side that you can toss in right before serving.
