Orzo With Cherry Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 3 minced garlic cloves and 1/2 teaspoon each minced rosemary and kosher salt in 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat, 1 minute. Add 1 cup orzo; toast, stirring, 2 minutes. Add one 14-ounce can cherry tomatoes and 2 cups chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, stirring, until the orzo is tender, 7 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons pecorino.

Steps:

• Cook the orzo following pack instructions. Drain, rinse under cold water, drain again and toss with half the olive oil.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large sauté pan. Add the celery, onion and some seasoning, and cook for 8 mins until soft. Add the garlic, cook for 1 min, then tip in the cherry tomatoes and simmer for 10 mins. Add the spinach, cover with a lid to wilt the leaves, then add the orzo, olives, dill and mint. Season and serve.

Steps:

• Toss together oil, tomatoes, dill, zest, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a large serving bowl. Let stand at least ten minutes
• Meanwhile, cook orzo in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (1 1/2 tablespoons salt for 4 quarts water) until al dente
• Drain orzo and toss with tomato mixture. Add feta and toss again.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the orzo into a medium casserole dish, then stir in the oil, red peppers, olives, chilli flakes and dried oregano. Tip in the chopped tomatoes, then refill the can halfway with water and pour that in too. Give everything a good mix, season, then cover and bake for 20 mins until the pasta is almost cooked. Take it out of the oven and give the orzo a stir. Remove the foil and return to the oven for a further 5 mins.
• Heat the grill to high. Take the orzo out of the oven and tear the mozzarella over the top, then grill until melted and bubbling. Serve with salad on the side, if you like.

Steps:

• Fill a 4 qt pot three-fourths full with salted water and bring to boil for orzo.
• In a small heavy skillet, heat 1/2 TBS olive oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and saute pine nuts, stirring frequently until golden, about 2 minutes; transfer nuts to paper towel to drain and cool.

• Add tomatoes and feta to the dressing, tossing to combine.
• Cook orzo in boiling water until al dente; drain and rinse until just warm, then drain completely.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the orzo and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, about 7 minutes.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and saute until the shallots begin to soften and the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook just to warm through, about 1 minute.
• Add the warm tomato mixture to a large bowl along with the feta, arugula, mint, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Drain the orzo and add it to the bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Toss well and serve.

• Cook orzo in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. In a large sieve drain orzo and rinse slightly until just warm. Drain orzo well and add to tomato mixture, tossing until just combined.

• Bring water with salt to a boil in a saucepan. Add orzo and cook, stirring, for about 10 minutes or until tender. Do not overcook. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a saucepan and add garlic. Cook briefly, stirring; do not brown. Add tomatoes, salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 3 minutes. Add orzo, basil and cheese. Blend well and serve.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions.
• While pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper evenly over shrimp.
• Add shrimp to pan; cook 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until done.
• Remove from pan.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to pan.
• Add onion, garlic, and red pepper; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add tomatoes, and cook 3 minutes or until tomatoes begin to soften, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in pasta and shrimp; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated.
• Remove from heat, and stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, cheese, and basil.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet, for which you have a lid, set over medium. And the onions, lightly season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 8 minutes. Turn the heat to medium-low, add the zucchini and garlic, and cook for 2 more minutes, stirring often.
• Add the tomatoes, basil, red-pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have completely collapsed, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar and tomato paste and cook for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add 2 1/2 cups water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the orzo, corn, and 1/2 teaspoon salt, mix well, and turn the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan 3 or 4 times, until the pasta is cooked. The pasta should look "saucy" as it cooks; if at any point it looks dry, add another 1/4 cup water.
• Off the heat, add the mozzarella and Parmesan and stir gently until just combined. Top with fresh basil and more red-pepper flakes if desired, and serve hot.
