Cómo preparar Genoa Orzo With Pesto
- Bring 2 1/2 quarts of water to a rolling boil in a large pot.
- Add 1 cup of orzo pasta to the boiling water.
- Cook for 7-8 minutes, or until the orzo is tender but still firm to the bite. Stir occasionally.
- Drain the orzo in a fine-mesh colander and rinse immediately under cold water until completely cool. This stops the cooking process and prevents the orzo from becoming gummy.
- Transfer the cooled orzo to a large serving bowl.
- Add 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives and 1/2 cup pesto (store-bought or homemade).
- Gently toss to combine the orzo, olives, and pesto.
- Stir in 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately for the best texture, or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The salad tastes even better the next day!
