How to Make Greek Orzo Salad With Grilled Shrimp
- Cook orzo pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and cool it down.
- While the orzo cooks, prepare the shrimp. If grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If pan-frying, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- If grilling, grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through. If pan-frying, cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked orzo, chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, Kalamata olives, red onion, and feta cheese.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the orzo mixture and toss gently to combine.
- Add the grilled or pan-fried shrimp to the salad and gently toss again.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill before serving (optional).
