Roasted Shrimp and Orzo
Recipe courtesy of Ina Garten
Total: 1 hr 35 min
Prep: 20 min
Inactive: 1 hr
Cook: 15 min
Yield: 6 servings
Level: Easy
Ingredients
Kosher salt
Good olive oil
3/4 pound orzo pasta (rice-shaped pasta)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds (16 to 18 count) shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup minced scallions, white and green parts
1 cup chopped fresh dill
1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 hothouse cucumber, unpeeled, seeded, and medium-diced
1/2 cup small-diced red onion
3/4 pound good feta cheese, large diced
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Fill a large pot with water, add 1 tablespoon of salt and a splash of oil, and bring the water to a boil. Add the orzo and simmer for 9 to 11 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s cooked al dente. 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 and stir well.
Meanwhile, place the shrimp on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine and spread out in a single layer. Roast for 5 to 6 minutes, until the shrimp are cooked through. Don’t overcook!
Add the shrimp to the orzo and then add the scallions, dill, parsley, cucumber, onion, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. 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, taste again for seasonings and bring back to room temperature before serving.

One of the few cooks that can actually cook.
I've made this but I use blue cheese instead of feta
VERY GOOD
This looks so good.
Goddamn it INA
I cooked this today and the flavors are over the top. Thank you, Ina.
Delicious and Easy! This is a go-to recipe. I've made this for a couple of years and always have rave reviews. You can even change it up a bit and it's still good. Sometimes, I've excluded the shrimp and had it as a side dish with grilled chicken or salmon. You can also adjust with gluten-free pasta if there is a dietary restriction. Also added a sprinkle of cayenne to the shrimp before roasting or add Tony Chachere's. Wonderful!
I have been making this recipe for years, it is excellent. I use a little less red onion. I always take this to picnic concerts with a nice bottle of white wine and french bread. Yummmy.
Love to try this. Never had Orzo before. I'll skip the veggies & just eat the shrimp & orzo. I love feta
Says and cuts parsley rough chop and looks a bit smaller chopped when putting in…size putting in better in my opinion. Also, cutting shrimp in half lengthwise still gives a nice appearance in the salad while being easier to eat.
Wow
.. what a wonderfull recipe. Me like,,,,
I have made this many times and I fall in love all over again!! 💕Ina Garten!!!
This is a fabulous recipe! So delicious. And easy!
My mom always makes that, it is really nice.
Okay… no one mentioned how she said at the end “sitting out on the deck, contemplating life”
Ina girl you okay?
She ended with “contemplating life” lmao I love Ina
My favorite Orzo Pasta recipe, thank you!

Perfect for eating anywhere, anytime.
I love watching her cook. I have learned quite a lot from her.
Never put olive oil on your pasta while it’s cooking.
Lemon juice and zest.
This was really good! My family loved it!
You my dear are my favorite and I'm a great italian cook.
Lately, I’ve been using a lot of Ina’s recipes. They are super easy and fast without missing any flavor. I’m definitely going to make this for my lunch for work.
She never fails 😍
Grape tomatoes would be a nice addition.
Miss Ina cooking this was my 1st cooking dish as a teenager and everyone fell in love and yet I still make this. Absolutely love it
Those shrimp are criminally undercooked
When I die I want to be reincarnated as Jeffrey Garten…Luckiest man alive.
Love this recipe and the fresh dill hits the spot !!!! Tonight I am making it for the 4th time.
What’s with her whisking everything
