Rarely do I rave , gush & swoon about a recipe from the 'daily journals'; experience leads me to suspect something 'ok' or mediocre, etc.

I am GUSHING! :D

The only change was to halve the recipe. We used 8-12 shrimp.

Oops! Sorry, I didn't kow it was blocked in the link.


INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon juice (from 1 lemon)
• ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes
• Kosher salt and black pepper
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup orzo
• ⅓ cup dry white wine
• 2 cups boiling water, seafood stock, or chicken stock
• 3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

PREPARATION
1. In a medium bowl, stir together the shrimp, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the 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).
2. To a medium skillet, add the butter, the remaining olive oil and garlic, and heat over medium. 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 the water or stock, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until the orzo is al dente, about 12 minutes.
3. 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.
4. Sprinkle with parsley and lemon juice, season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
