Steps:
- Cook orzo in a 4- to 5-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain in a colander.
- While orzo cooks, lightly toast pine nuts in a dry small skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool 1 minute, then coarsely chop.
- Drain artichoke hearts in a large sieve and rinse well. Pull off leaves from bases of hearts and quarter bases. Rinse leaves and bases well, then drain thoroughly.
- Stir together oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add orzo, pine nuts, artichokes (leaves and bases), parsley, and zest and toss to combine.
Tips:
- Prep your ingredients in advance: Chop the artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, and parsley before you start cooking. This will save you time and make the assembly process easier.
- Use a large skillet or Dutch oven: This will give the orzo plenty of room to cook and absorb the flavorful broth.
- Don't overcook the orzo: It should be al dente, with a slight bite to it.
- Add the sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts at the end of the cooking process: This will prevent them from becoming tough.
- Season the salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and additional spices or herbs as desired.
Conclusion:
This artichoke orzo and sun-dried tomato salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
