Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp raw, peeled and deveined, large
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp garlic parsley salt adjust to preference
- 2 tbsp butter unsalted
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 cup orzo
- 1/3 cup white wine dry
- 2 cups water boiling
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, oil, and garlic parsley salt. Mix together until the shrimp is well coated, then set aside.
- Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic, and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Add the orzo, stirring often until it is golden and toasted (about three minutes).
- Pour in the wine and cook down until it has absorbed. Add the boiling water. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes. The orzo should be almost fully cooked, with most of the water absorbed.
- Nestle the shrimp into the orzo. Cover and cook 2-3 minutes. Uncover and stir until the shrimp and orzo is fully cooked and the water has fully evaporated.
- If desired, drizzle with lemon juice and top with fresh parsley. Serve and enjoy!
