Cooking Steps

Cook orzo
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425˚F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
  • To a medium pot, add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • To the boiling water, add orzo. Cook for 8-10 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite. Strain orzo, then return to the pot, off heat.
  • Stir in stock powder and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter.
Prep and cook veggies
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Quarter zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers and zucchini. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper. 
Sear and roast pork
3
  • Pat pork dry with paper towels. Season all over with pepper and half the garlic salt.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork. Pan-fry for 2-3 min per side, until golden, then transfer pork to an unlined baking sheet.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 8-12 min, until cooked through.**
  • When pork is done, transfer to a cutting board to rest for 3-5 min.
Finish orzo
