How to Make Orzo Salad With Feta And Cherry Tomatoes
- Bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil in a 4-quart pot. Add orzo and cook according to package directions until al dente (about 8-10 minutes).
- While orzo cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add pine nuts and toast, stirring frequently, until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, whisk together minced garlic, chopped parsley, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.
- Slowly drizzle in the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil while whisking constantly to create a vinaigrette.
- Add halved cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese to the dressing and gently toss to combine.
- Once orzo is cooked, drain it thoroughly and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain again completely.
- Add the cooked orzo and toasted pine nuts to the bowl with the dressing and vegetables. Toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. Enjoy!
