Or, just enjoy the ease of throwing this dish together! It only takes about 15 minutes and then you let the crock pot do all of the work.

ORZO PASTA, SPICY TOMATO SAUCE & FETA FROM THE DUCKSOUP COOK



Orzo Pasta, Spicy Tomato Sauce & Feta from the Ducksoup Cook image

*Courtesy of Clare Lattin and Tom Hill, authors of Ducksoup* "The Italians use orzo in soups and stews, as it's a good way to bulk out a dish without filling yourself up too much. Feta gives this dish an added saltiness, but not in the same way that Parmesan would- it's more gentle. This dish reminds of how good a well-made feta can be. We love this dish as a summer weeknight supper." - From the Ducksoup cookbook by Clare Lattin and Tom Hill

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb large tomatoes (we love Pink Oxheart tomatoes)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1 teaspoon nigella seeds
1 small onion, diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon paprika
4 ounces orzo pasta
3 1/2 ounces feta
3 leaves fresh oregano

Steps:

  • First skin the tomatoes. Bring a large pan of water to a boil. Using a sharp knife, score a little cross at the base of the tomatoes and cut out the "eye" of the tomato at the other end. Have a large bowl of ice water ready, and once your water is boiling submerge the tomatoes for 15 seconds, then immediately plunge them into the ice water. You'll be able to peel off their skins immediately. Set to one side.
  • In a large frying pan, temper the cumin and nigella seeds in the olive oil over low heat for 1 minute, then add the onion and cook until soft. Add the garlic, chile flakes, bay leaf, and paprika and cook for 2 minutes. Coarsely chop the tomatoes, add to the onions, and simmer for 10 minutes. You're looking for a soupy consistency, so if you need to add a little water, then do so. Season with salt and pepper. While your sauce is cooking, bring a large pan of salted water to a boil and cook your orzo pasta for 10 minutes, or according to the package instructions. Drain and add to the tomato sauce.
  • Let everything cook together for a couple of minutes. To serve, divide between two bowls, crumble the feta over, and sprinkle with the fresh oregano and a drizzle of olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the right steak: For this recipe, a tender cut of steak like flank steak or skirt steak is best. These cuts are flavorful and cook quickly.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, oregano, and lemon juice helps to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the steak and create a nice crust.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and juicy.
  • Use a good quality tomato sauce: A flavorful tomato sauce is essential for this dish. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Add the orzo pasta to the sauce: Orzo is a small, rice-shaped pasta that cooks quickly and adds a nice texture to the dish.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh oregano or basil adds a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
