Ingredients (serves six):
Kosher salt
Ground black pepper
Olive oil
3/4 pound orzo pasta
1/2 freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
1 cup minced scallions
1 cup chopped fresh dill
1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 cucumber (unpeeled, seeded, medium-diced)
1/2 cup diced red onion
3/4 pound feta cheese
2 pounds (16-18 count) shrimp (peeled)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F). Fill a large pot with water, add 1 tablespoon of salt and a splash of olive oil, and bring water to a boil. Add the orzo and simmer for 9-11 minutes. Stir occasionally. Drain and pour into a large bowl.
Whisk together the lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Pour over the hot pasta. Stir.
Place the shrimp on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 5-6 minutes.
Add the shrimp to the orzo and then add scallions, dill, parsley, cucumber, onion, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Toss. Add feta chunks and stir slowly.
Refrigerate or keep at room temperature for an hour, and then serve!
