Time 22m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound orzo pasta
1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 large lemons)
2 lemons, zested
3 cloves garlic, smashed or finely minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and place in a serving bowl. Add the cheese and toss until coated.
  • For the sauce: In a small saucepan, bring the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and garlic to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the mint and parsley.
  • Pour the sauce over the cooked orzo, toss until coated, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I had some leftover mint and parsley and they worked perfectly in the sauce. The sauce is also very versatile. I served it over orzo, but I think it would also be great on chicken, fish, or vegetab
