Cooking Steps

Prep

1

Before starting, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings).
Wash and dry all produce.
Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Finely chop parsley.
Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half moons.
Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.

Cook orzo

2

To the boiling water, add orzo. Cook for 8-10 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
Strain orzo, reserving 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) of pasta water, then return to the pot, off heat.

Cook shrimp

3

Meanwhile, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and half the Mediterranean Spice Blend.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then shrimp.
Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until shrimp just turn pink.** Transfer to a plate.

Cook veggies

4

To the same pan, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, peppers, zucchini and remaining Mediterranean Spice Blend.
Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until tender crisp.
Add in 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, garlic and shrimp. Cook for 30 sec-1 min until fragrant and shrimp is warmed through.

Finish orzo

5

To the pot with the orzo, stir in pesto and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) reserved pasta water. Season with salt and pepper, if you like.

Finish and serve

6

Divide orzo between bowls, then top with shrimp and veggies.
Top with yogurt sauce.
Sprinkle parsley and feta over top.
