     ROASTED SHRIMP AND ORZO SALAD

Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
12 OZ ORZO PASTA (OR FIDEO PASTA)
1/2 CUP LEMON JUICE
1/4 CUP OLIVE OIL PLUS EXTRA FOR SHRIMP
1 TSP GROUND BLACK PEPPER PLUS EXTRA FOR SHRIMP
1 TSP KOSHER SALT PLUS EXTRA FOR SHRIMP
1 LB UNCOOKED SHRIMP (I USED 26-30 COUNT)
1 C THINLY SLICED GREEN ONION (WHITE AND GREEN PARTS)
1 CUP CHOPPED FRESH DILL
1 C CHOPPED FRESH FLAT LEAF PARSLEY
 
1 CUCUMBER, DICED
1/2 CUP DICED RED ONION
12 OZ FETA CHEESE

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add orzo and simmer until tender, 9 to 11 minutes. Drain and pour into a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, salt and pepper. Pour over the hot pasta and stir well.
Meanwhile, place the shrimp on a sheet pan and drizzle with a bit of olive oil - I used about 1 Tbsp. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Spread out in a single layer and roast for 5 to 6 minutes, until cooked through. Add the shrimp to the bowl with the orzo and then add the herbs, cucumber and onion. Toss well. Add the feta and stir carefully.
Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend, or refrigerate overnight. If refrigerated, you may want to add another drizzle of olive oil before serving. This salad is best served at room temperature, but straight out of the fridge is good, too. Enjoy!
