Рецепт Orzo with spinach and tomatoes
I think I found this recipe on Rachel Ray's web site. It's so easy and very tasty. Light and a little tart at the same time.
Ингредиенты
- 1 pound spinach, washed, dried, and stems removed.
- 1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, halved.
- 2 lemons, zested.
- 1.5 cups orzo, cooked to al dente.
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (1 turn of the bowl)
- 24 basil leaves, torn or thinly sliced
- salt and pepper
Инструкции
- Pile spinach leaves in stacks (one on top of the other).
- Thinly slice stacks of leaves to make spinach confetti.
- Pile shredded spinach into the bottom of a medium sized mixing bowl.
- Halve grape or cherry tomatoes with a paring knife and add to the mixing bowl.
- Add the zest of two lemons to the bowl and save the lemons in the refrigerator for another recipe.
- Add hot cooked and drained orzo pasta to the mixing bowl.
- The heat of the pasta will wilt the spinach and warm the tomatoers at the bottom of the bowl (as well as get the juices from the tomatoes flowing). The heat of the pasta will also release the flavor and oils in the lemon zest.
- Drizzle one teaspoon of olive oil over the pasta and toss to combine all the ingredients. Add basil and salt and pepper and toss to combine.
- Taste your orzo to adjust seasonings and serve.
