Subj : N.Y.T. Pasta - 02 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Fri Nov 04 2022 13:58:14 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 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.
